I am arguing that UNCONTROLLED immigration and outsourcing is detrimental to the American worker and beneficial to the elites. There is an argument that all immigration, outsourcing, and H1B should be managed with the best interests of the American worker in mind as well as the overall economy but the one percenters wouldn't like that so our politicians would never do it.
As far as jobs staying in the US and jobs leaving the US, I would think many H1B workers would rather have the jobs in their own communities where they wouldn't have to leave their extended family and their earnings would go much further. With undocumented immigrants, I would think many more of them would prefer the jobs in their own communities where they can be with their loved ones rather than having to brave a dangerous journey to the border, face a high risk of sexual assault or being forced into human slavery, possibly dying of thirst in the desert, and having to live illegally in a strange land with a strange language just to get the same job.
