ORRRRR....maybe they should pay higher wages to stimulate demand for people to enter in those occupations. I can't help but think that the H-1B VISA program should be tightly restricted by industry and time-limited. If we can't find programmers, our immigration policy should be to recruit them abroad and then find a way to put them onto a fast-track to citizenship. NAY...we should COMPEL them towards the process of citizenship lest they forfeit some amount of tribute. In no way or shape should our immigration policy serve to distort the labor market here to corporate benefit. We should be seeking every possible mechanism to help our economy grow via the increasing demand for skilled labor here in the USA. That doesn't happen when you collapse demand for entry-level positions in the USA like H-1B has ben demonstrated to do. We should also BAN in the strongest possible terms the practice of forcing an employee to train their replacement or put it under such onerous terms that no corporation would do it. I'm talking about the equivalent of a years salary in severance or more. If you can't do the job on day one, you have no business replacing a native worker who is doing the job.
