If it's top talent, then they should be forced to pay them the wage of a US worker, if not more.

Instead, you end up competing against the whole world on salary and servitude hours for a local job.

They are forced to do that, and they in fact do that.

Source: I was hired by one big tech company as an H-1B worker (I was a new grad) over a decade ago (2012), my salary was ~15% higher than what the chart says for "class of 2014".
