Xae posted:H1Bs shouldn't have a number cap. But they should have a minimum wage, say $150,000/yr tied to inflation. $150,000 is way way too high and would actually price out a lot of talented people out of entry level jobs, which are usually around $60-80k/year in tech. quote:Let companies bring over all the experts in whatever field they can dream up. But stop bringing over 22 year olds and paying them $20K/yr to work in entry level IT jobs.

Dmitri-9 posted:What? If american workers really had no marginal value to companies then wages would fall without immigration because the companies would just globalize more. HB1s are just a naked wealth transfer to owners and the only thing the US has to get used to is billionaires with unlimited greed and fat media budgets. HB1s requires reform but right now they are a pretty good ticket out of corrupt/poor second world countries for a whole bunch of people. joeburz posted:3rd generation immigrant from both sides, all the amnesty "garbage" as you put it is a bit more nuanced than you present. Also you're reading like a migration version of the awful minimum wage argument "why should people get paid 15 dollars an hour when i only make 18????"
