Those jobs would go to citizens if they weren't taken up by immigrants. Sure, the salary requirements would increase, but isn't that literally the rallying cry of politics right now?
To pay people more?
So I have trouble squaring this:
we want more low skilled immigrants, we don't want to build a wall or any deterrant actually but we need to cap and reduce high skilled immigration?
Meanwhile, we need to lobby for more destructive policies that will reduce the flyover states voting power?
As an american, I'm really surprised at the quality of responses here which are mostly skeptical of H-1B immigration benefits but then I see full throated support to low skilled immigration. Is this because I'm from a flyover state and can see the first hand damage low skilled immigration causes and most here are ignoring that?
A dumber community of people, I have never seen.
