Should US companies be able to fire/layoff US citizens to hire a cheaper employee through H-1B visa ?

So say you work for a company for 20 years, and they decide to replace you with a lower waged foreigner, you somehow didn't deserve the job you dedicated 20 years of your life doing?? Meanwhile you have a mortgage, kid's tuition, medical insurance etc? 

Absolutely correct. It's time for me to find a new job, there are lots around.

I am generally invaluable to my employer anyway, it will cost them more to hire someone and spend the next several years trying to up-skill them to my level... But if someone walked in with the same skillset and training but would work for less... Then good on them.

Dog eat dog world I guess...
