The take away I got from the article is that these people are being replaced by workers here on H1-B visas. Which are suppose to be used only for positions that you can not find any American workers for.

So Disney instead hires a contractor service that employees H1-B people to replace the people being laid off at a lower rate.

While the originals were still employed at Disney, they weren't available to be hired at Disney. So Disney was forced to hire H1Bs, as there were no Americans to be found for those seats; they were already in those seats.

Exactly. Neither does what happened to those people.
