The Quote: "I don't like being lied to and the tech industry is lying to us."
Who Said It: Norman Matloff, professor of computer science at the University of California-Davis.
In Context: A leading opponent of the H-1B program, which allows companies to hire foreigners for skilled jobs in the United States, Matloff contends the increase in the number of H-1B visas and green cards gives high-tech companies the opportunity to further exploit the system. "There's no shortage of American workers for these jobs," Matloff says. "I don't like being lied to and the tech industry is lying to us. They simply want access to cheap labor."
