A social media post by US entrepreneur James Blunt claiming that H-1B visa holders make up less than 0.5% of the American workforce has triggered an online debate over immigration, tech jobs and data interpretation.
Blunt shared a chart on X suggesting that around 700,000 H-1B workers form a “tiny orange cluster” compared with roughly 160 million total US workers. He argued that concerns about foreign workers taking American jobs are exaggerated and driven by emotion rather than facts.
