The ones that IBM passed up on, yes.
This is the real test. If these changes are so bad, will someone campaign bare on overturning these? Will the “other side” change it?
If they don’t, you know that they also agreed with it - this handwringing now is just for show.
In practice, though, almost all employers file EB GC petitions for only their current employees, not future ones.

Market is vibes! The price of something at a moment is, for example, what market participants collectively agree what the price of it should be.

The CFO heard of a novel technique used by his peers in other companies, and they reported good results. He wants to try it within his organization too. As an executive, he is paid to (among other things) keep abreast of such developments in the industry and ensure that the organization he is leading is not caught flat footed in the market.
Jokes aside, if in 15 years you have worked with only few good Indian engineers, you probably have not yet worked at places with high talent density. I could understand if you had said you have (a) worked with many low quality engineers from India, or (b) worked with far more low quality engineers from India than high quality ones. But if, in absolute numbers, you haven't come across many good engineers from India, I can only infer than you probably haven't worked with very good engineers across the board.

The value you derive from living in the country of your residence is higher that your poorer neighbors; hence you are charged more.
It is ridiculous. Do you have a citation for the $50K number?
