Also, stop connecting H1B to the hiring company! If the H1B company isn't offering a good salary, the person should be able to change jobs to another in the US

Also, stop connecting H1B to the hiring company! If the H1B company isn't offering a good salary, the person should be able to change jobs to another in the US without paperwork. This would remove most incentives for a person to take a below-market wage, removing the downward pressure (that I think is theoretical but...) Plus it stops treating people like indentured servants. +1 for humanity. For companies whining about people leaving fast: don't offer shitty jobs! Signing bonuses exist for americans, figure out how to keep people without the threat of deportation.
