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

185. The H-1B blocks that.

What you're desperately failing to understand is the H-1B does not make the immigrant and the citizen the same.

The H-1B, in fact, doesn't even make an immigrant. It's a non-immigrant visa.

People are only "hurt" by these visas in the same way that people are "hurt" by other types of immigration

Go re-read my previous posts, where I explain in graphic detail how both the visa holder and citizens are hurt by H-1B visas.

Because you're so busy arguing, it's abundantly clear you aren't bothering to read anything other people write.

How about we actually try to sensibly regulate the markets, instead of leaving those regulations up to big business and then discriminating against people who are just trying to make the best for themselves in the same shitty market as everyone else.

How 'bout you actually try to read what people are writing. Because then you'd understand that the H-1B is killing the goat and salting the fields of both farmers.

I can't say this enough: in this world, we have enough resources to give every single person a comfortable standard of living. I would rather work on that than wish death on my neighbour's goat.

Then you should HATE the H-1B visa. But you don't understand what it does, and are not willing to find out.
