Any documentation that there is an actual shortage of skilled workers? The high number of applications for special Visa to bring in foreign skilled workers is only probative of a desire to increase profits and bonuses --not of a shortage of skilled Americans. In Silicon Valley, which relies (too) heavily on this program, the cost of these engeineers, computer techs etc is half that of American workers salaries. Complain about excessive work/hours? Adios Amigos !
Anybody want to devote years and money to go into , say, Physical Therepy, which requires a Doctor of Physical Therepy degree now in NYS, when salaries are kept low by indentured workers who, if fired, lose their work visas--and residence status?
Why not have Companies that pay to petition for visa pay the graduate school tuition of Americans?
Why do banks get high markups on Gov't guarenteed no-risk loans?
Anybody actually believe those "safeguards (huh, what safeguards?) will actually be enforced by Gov't oversight agencies? How? By asking Companies if they are in compliance and taking their word?
