NYPD admits that every single homicide in their city where a gun was used since Michael Bloomberg became Mayor was a result of an “illegal gun” — i.e. the suspect posessed the firearm in violation of local, state and Federal laws.

Maybe H1-B visas are not the same as illicit drugs, but Business Week lists the top 200 companies in order of the number of H1-B visas that ICE approved for them. Most of the time, the “skilled” workers they’re importing aren’t so uniquely skilled that no American can fulfill the responsibility — note that many companies on this list are accounting, consulting, and finance firms; there are plenty of Americans that are skilled enough in those fields to meet the demand of those firms. In the case of accounting and consulting, those firms based in America need American accountants, because every country has different standards and rules for financial accounting. The dirty little secret is that many natives of east, southeast and southern Asia are being trained in American accounting standards.
The answer to this riddle is that the personnel imported through H1-B visas are cheaper and more slavish.
