Bullshit. Business looks for cheap labor. The reason guys like Michael Dell, Larry Ellison, and Steve Ballmer lobbied Congress for expansion of H-1B numbers was because technical industry workers were able to command record-high compensation because of the shortage of LABOR, not TALENT. The flood of H-1B tech workers has diluted the labor market, depressed compensation rates, and raised unemployment.
Do your own homework. Search on anything from "Washington Post" to google on the subject. This is not just my opinion; it's historical and economic fact. And it has nothing to do with any ethnic holiday; if you think otherwise, you are probably an H-1B.
