There is also an education gap.

Yet, most of the people crying about "foreigners coming in to steal American jobs" through H1B and other types of visas are often not intelligent enough or educated enough to take these jobs and are unwilling to change the education system to provide financial aid for the education of people who do have the brains to take these jobs.
