Facebook/Google should be forced to hire only Americans. At gunpoint if needed.

As someone who has worked in tech for many years, I've watched with increasing dismay as Indian and Chinese IT workers (H-1b holders) have essentially taken over huge swathes of US technology sector. Trillions of dollars of American wealth have been sent overseas. It's a very large part of the economic destruction of the middle class of America.
Like many IT workers I've gotten more radicalized. It's clear that the massive funds flow out of the tech sector to India have caused massive education, growth, and effort by the Indians to learn skills and then quickly zoom over to America to get as much cash as possible and carry it back.
The tech CEOs say "well, we are getting all that Indian talent". That's such utter bullshit. If that same funding had gone to the US midwest, we'd have programming schools and IT development out the wazoo in Ohio and Michigan and whatever. Cash flow creates jobs, jobs create education, education trains young workers. It's a cycle. If you cut funds, education fails.
What Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates have done is not "take advantage" of the education gap between india and the US. They've *created* the education gap. They are maintaining it.
The H1-b program is a death spiral for the American economy. It's a matter of continued existence of our nation.
Having worked with Microsoft executives, for example the current CEO is Indian...no surprise...I know that they will never stop the drain. Their primary allegiance is against middle America. They hate their own country.
So, at the point of a gun (the international deadliness of the US military machine) it's time to shut down the god damn H1-B program and force, and I mean force, Microsoft and other tech companies to start investing back in the nation that they owe allegiance to.
You know, most US billionaires now have plans to escape to New Zealand or whatever, in event of trouble in the US. It's time to make them understand that there is no escape for them. They have a drone targeted at their foreheads.
Start investing again in the American people, or else.
