I don't think its true that H-1B visas have 'shrunk the American market in software programers'. In fact, your comments seems to strenghten my position even more. For our national security we need the best programmers in the world coming here. (not our companies going there - outsourcing etc..)

Yes, give them security clearences in the most careful way possible.

No, just the market for Amercian software programmers.

We had the best programmers in the world. A lot of them are selling used cars and wearing Home Depot aprons thanks to H-1Bs.

Wouldn't it just be easier to send the programming work to India or China? Business is and they claim to be saving a bundle. Why shouldn't government?
