    Times of India's anonymous hack on whether Donald Trump will order
    Howard Lutnick and Jamieson Greer to trade access to the American
    labor market for Narendra Modi's excess human capital in return for
    sales of F-35s to MoD.GOV.IN for Jim Taiclet's LMCO.COM: <URL:https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india-business/h-1b-visas-are-tcs-infosys-susceptible-to-us-immigration-policy-changes-heres-what-moodys-says/articleshow/119199479.cms>
    | H-1B visa policy changes under US President Donald Trump's
    | government makes major Indian IT firms susceptible to immigration
    | policy changes and higher costs, says Moody's in its latest report.
    | Indians secured approximately 75% of H-1B visas granted in 2023,
    | maintaining the country's position as a primary source of IT
    | workforce globally.
    |
    | According to a Moody's analysis, major technology firms like
    | Infosys, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Hexaware Technologies
    | depend on these qualified professionals for extended US-based
    | assignments, making them vulnerable to shifts in immigration
    | regulations and escalating expenses.
    |
    | The analysis indicates that TCS and Infosys are better equipped to
    | handle increased operational costs due to their superior profit
    | margins in the sector.

    Has Joseph Edlow's USCIS.GOV and Lori Chavez-DeRemer's DoL.GOV
    calculated how much more expensive scab workers will cost the Cheap
    Labor Lobby if Edlow converts it to a wage ordered queue?
