For god sake the answer is not more regulation it is less regulation. Protectionism will cause far more harm than good.

How is it protectionism to curtail the H1-B visa program, which was predicated on a condition that is no longer true, namely that there is a shortage of qualified IT workers in this country?

I'd be all for doing away with H1-B. But then what will the 2 million techies that are still unemployed complain about? There are entirely too many IT workers in this country, and the number is growing, thanks to the morons who keep saying the future is in "high tech", like plastics in The Graduate.

Dirtboy, have you taken a good look at luckydevi's screen name? Devi is an Indian name. I spotted that on the first post by this person. Hahaha, protectionism will cause more harm than good for my relatives in Bangladesh...
