US to hike H1B visas, merit will count for green cards

[LiberalEsto]

112. I am not any kind of expert political debater

I certainly did not intend to imply that Americans would not do these jobs. The other poster challenged me about when my family came to America, and in response I told parents' story. Why would I oppose "immigration in general", when my own parents were immigrants?

I meant that my parents weren't coming here with hordes of other Estonians with the intention of snatching large numbers of good-paying jobs from Americans. No corporation brought them here with the intent of using them as cheap foreign labor to replace better-paid Americans.

And I was not in any way talking about European countries.

I was pointing out that there is absolutely no reciprocity in which Americans can obtain good tech jobs in India, the Philippines or the other nations that provide our corporations with H1B workers.
