You make some fair points, but if we allowed unemployed H1-Bs to stay here, wouldn’t they just put a drain on our system?
You make some fair points, but if we allowed unemployed H1-Bs to stay here, wouldn’t they just put a drain on our system?Why not? If we're going to bring over smart people to work here, they should be able to go on the dole just like everybody else. We can't have our cake and eat it too. H1B's(not superstars) are a lot less attractive when you have to pay them benefits like everyone else.
The minute you take away social services from a group like the H1B's you create a slave class that will necessarily be attractive to employers.
