H-1B ping. Let me know if you're not on the list and want to be added (or are and want to be removed).

Of course it can be fixed. Will it be fixed is the real question

H1-B is simply a cover for immigration. Period.

H-1B is codified corruption. It can’t be fixed. Kill it.

I don’t see this as necessarily a problem with the H-1B visa program, but a problem of enforcement. It’s analogous to our overall immigration system; we have immigration laws and regulations, they just aren’t enforced.
The regulations regarding the issuance of H-1B visas is quite clear. The problem is that many companies have found a way to skirt those regulations, the executive branch refuses to enforce them, and Congress (for varying reasons on both sides of the aisle) refuses to compel the executive branch to comply with the law.

I agree. We have Americans here that need and can do the jobs. We don’t need any more Democrats.

Of course it can be fixed. Just enforce the laws that employers are breaking/ignoring. It'll get fixed right quick.

Can only be fixed with Trump. All others have big-money sponsors and those people want this. All media also in this.
For example, Murdoch owns Fox News & Wall Street Journal. Wants blanket amnesty & no cap on H1b visas. his wsj article:

A program of egregious misuse for political and economic misuse by Democrats and RINOs alike is bad by its very nature. We simply do not need them.

It’s the same as all Federal programs. Destroy the White Middle Class and replace them with Third Worlders.
ITS THE ONLY POLICY THEY HAVE!

Can it be fixed? A 350 kiloton nuclear device centered on Washington, DC would get the process started.
