No!
Only solution is $300k base salary and $25k per year government fee for having H1B.
Above will make abuse 0 and only right people will come.
$25k fee should go for training Americans.
What about allowing these H-1Bs to jump ship on day one?
If the "labor shortage" is real like these American oligarchs are saying they should be fine with it, right?

Or make the first $300K of salary expense non-deductible for the company.

This is why corporate American needs H-1B; nobody puts a gun to corporate America's head and forces them to hire H-1B's; no one force State Department to give visas to H-1B's.

It’s the odd accounting of ESG. To qualify for BlackRock/Vanguard’s standards of investment, a company must take on a quota of diversity, competent or not. They’d rather take on H1B diversity than domestic diversity, as Indian engineers can be good. In aggregate, though, these policies pull companies like Intel and Boeing backward.
Outlaw ESG as a requirement for investment bank largesse. This would subtract the real financial incentive behind H1B. And remove Blackrock from such position of influence. They were created from the bailouts of 2009 and Geithner’s PPP idea. They took in Maiden Lane and the failed Fannie Mae (etc) mortgages, were made whole by Fed’s “QE”, and became the behemoth they are. They’re a govt creation, a Frankenstein, and should have nothing to do with forced policy.

All Americans make America great, including immigrants. We must increase H1B ten fold and eliminate country quotas. Make it easy to check immigration status, give EAD to all green card applicants, and quadruple USCIS staffing budget to expedite legal immigration. This is how you make America the greatest ever.

Nobody is buying the bullshit that lowering H1Bs will stop the next Werner von Braun or Einstein from being scooped up by the USA.
Everybody knows Raj probably doesn't have the 1-2 year nonname, fly-by-night Mumbai tech schoo degree. I suspect most couldn't pass a basic Linux Foundation or COMPTIA Core Test. You just want them because you don't have to pay them unemployment, work them 50-60 hours for 40, and that 40 at less than having the job done by an actual basic certified American (much less a CS degree from any university or college).
We have a visa for real world-class researchers, it's the O-1 Visa.
