--The employer must show no Americans wanted the job.

An interesting proviso. I know I'm mixing apples and oranges, but it would be sweet if they extended that to H1B workers. Import a Java programmer from Calcutta? OK, but you have to prove that no American is looking for a job as a Java programmer...

Actually they do ... so the companies artificially raise the interview bar for American interviewees so high that NO ONE could pass it. Then they say they couldn't "Find" a qualified American worker and hire an H1B ... they do this ALL the time ... and I would know having been victimized by it numerous times

It's easy to do that, just advertise the job as starting at $23,500 or some other low number a year. Voila, no Americans wanted the job...
