Congress should raise the cap on H-1B immigrants for these four reasons.
1) H-1B immigrants are highly skilled.
2) Businesses are in need of talent.
3) Create new jobs for Americans.
4) Provide more tax revenue for government.

so 'illegal' immigrants are not O.K, but highly underpaid, possibly American-hating 'legal' immigrants on H1-B visas are ok?
You, Sir, will destory America long before the illegals from south of the border will.

Dummy! Software engineers are computer programmers; Support Staff are Technical Staff. This guy does not know what he is talking about. Expansion of stock value is why CEOs want to hire H1-Bs. Taxes to Americans in these jobs = taxes paid by H1-Bs. No one is expanding - I don't see WFB locations in India!

Leokuan, your line of thinking is feeble at best. You need to take ECON 101 and learn about supply and demand. Business is lobbying for an increase in h1b visas so they can increase the supply of labor, and hence bring down wages. End of story. Morons like yourself serve a valuable role in passing along the nonsense that pro-business types like Bill Gates wants us all to believe.

You want to know why nutters get no respect? They go into intelligent forums having no clue how to respond to things they should be formed up and clear on, but yet find the half ounce of mind space to prattle on about the most inconsequential nonessentials. You nutters... blah, blah, blah blah... bleh!

The heritage foundation has no legitimacy or authority. Right wing elitists suffer from a shared mental disorder which makes them think that they couldn't possibly be wrong while in fact everything around them is in chaos and the russians have surrounded berlin. Time to take your cyanide capsules you loons and shoot yourselves because the end of the republican party is near. All is lost! All is lost! Abandon hope all ye who enter here.
