No one gets an H-1B involuntarily, and it would be an unusual circumstance where someone who had one was not free to leave. That said, I support liberating everyone bound by the H-1B by eliminating the visa category entirely.

If all they wanted was higher wages and a better standard of living, there’s any number of other countries, that have more relaxed immigration policies, they could have moved to. If they can get a job and a visa in the US, they’re obviously good enough.

- cheeze 8y agoYeah. It's not that hard to move companies as a non-citizen. It's more difficult than a citizen, sure. But I agree with the poster above that I have many many friends who have done exactly this.
