Actually, there is some real exploitation, even in hi-tech. I have first-hand knowledge of it. It's the same kind of story story they tell us natives -- "work your ass off now for crummy wages and get your green card, then it's the big-time".

I was working for a company that imported about a half-dozen Chinese guys to do software. Paid their wages directly into their bank in China, made them all live in a rented 3-bedroom house, gave them an allowance of like twenty bucks a week. The company shafted me at one point which is when I got the whole story so I called the INS. INS said it was a 60-Minutes perfect abuse of the system.
