I understand the current corporate-speak re: the “need’ for H1-B workers; they are so embedded in tech that it’s impossible to reverse direction. I have nothing against H1-B workers; they are smart and work hard. That said, when the H1-B trend began in tech, 10’s of thousands of qualified American workers were pushed out of jobs because H1-B workers were cheaper.

I think you forgot some math in that math of yours. You lack the percentage aspect and it should be percentage of US based companies by state not by the whole country (though the latter might be of interest to some most people are interested in what’s going on in their state)
