    H1bs are more attainable because they can be petitioned by any company without a strict education requirement, can be extended, does not discriminate on position or require work history with the employer.

    In many circumstances, h1b is the simpler process.

    I agree a simplification would be beneficial, so why are congressional Republicans making immigration reform legislation and then voting it down?

      H1b has a very strict education requirement. It’s the cornerstone of the program. It does discriminate on position. It is a cornerstone of the position.

      H1b are used to under pay workers who are brought in to compete against American jobs.

      This is a program both sides except you hate.

        I don’t think “hate” is the right word, it’s a little extreme.

        I never stated it was perfect, just that it has its applications.

        Biden and DOHS are already looking at how to improve its shortcomings.

        I already repeated most of this but you weren’t listening between your trolling comments.

          Be civil. If you want to be taken seriously, don’t mention the troll unless it’s accurate. It is also a violation of lemm.ee rules. A troll wouldn’t be having a serious conversation with you about the issues with H1B visas.

          You may think it’s a program worth saving but I feel it’s flawed out of the gate. It is just an abusive visa program that needs to go away. if the person is such a unicorn, they should be given the chance for citizenship and shouldn’t have a thirty-day exit period. Those are people we want to become Americans. If they are not the unicorns they are claimed to be, a normal visa would be better for them.

            You’re right. Trolling is a serious thing, which is why I’ve called it out with your comments the past few days, and other users have agreed with me on.

            Thank you for prefacing your argument this time with “I feel”, making clear that it is your opinion and not the state of things, which is how your previous comments have been worded.

            I definitely agree with you on the exit period. But this alone does not qualify h1b to be completely ended, in my opinion.
