Quick summary of probability shifts under the weighted system:
Level I ($80K median): -57% selection probability
Level II ($103K median): -14%
Level III ($135K median): +29%
Level IV ($158K median): +73%
The counterintuitive finding: product companies (direct employers) have 22% Level I concentration vs 7% for staffing firms. The rule designed to stop "lottery abuse" hits direct employers 3x harder.
Data source: DOL LCA disclosure data. Happy to discuss methodology.
> The rule designed to stop "lottery abuse" hits direct employers 3x harder.
To prove this, you need to compute the total numbers and not just proportion. If 22% of the direct employees are Level 1, but there's only 300 direct level 1 filings total, the absolute numbers are dwarfed by the drop in probability of the staffing firms.
