"U.S Labor laws require an employer to attest through a long a tedious process that no American is available and willing to take a job."

U.S. Labor Laws !! LOL !!

You have no idea to what has been going on with these H1B visa program the past years. Or are just one of the people abusing the system to line your pockets on the backs of cheap imported labor. It`s one or the other.

We are NOT talking about "immigrants", we are talking about "temporary workers" , being brought into this country to do work cheaper than what an American worker will do the work for. Oh, it started out to fill a shortage in an industry, but morphed into a prostitution system for cheap labor.

The people are not here to become "citizens", they are here to work and then go home after their visa`s expire ( which many of them don`t do, and end up being here illegally ). These people are not "immigrants" ! This is the thing you need to understand.

The visa system on paper is one thing, the reality of the system is another. The prevailing wage, was thrown out the window years ago, the trying to hire an American first was also thrown out years ago as well. Loopholes have been made to appease business in getting these workers into their mix. The government looks the other way and does not regulate the program, period.

It has gotten to the point where its not even about the cheap labor anymore, its about control. Business can control an imported worker with all authority because the imported worker can be sent home on a whim by the company. They are completely at the mercy of their so called host, and they know it. Its like having your own little slave worker, only you can`t whip them when they get out of line, but you can put them on a plane and send them back to their hellhole of a country if they don`t do as you say.

You need to read the posts from people who have had their lives savaged by this program , and livelyhoods stolen from them because some politician wants a campaign contribution.

I have seen it firsthand myself, so I know a little about it.

For someone who spouts about government not regulating hiring practices of business and protectionism, you sure don`t have a problem with government helping an industry do it with this visa program !!!
