- wyclif 6y agoClassic moving of the goalposts IMO. 2015 was the last year I could get reliable data for. Wait time? What standards are you basing your comments on and what countries are you comparing the USA to? By any reasonable standard, the US is still very pro-immigration and pro-entrepreneur.
- raverbashing 6y ago> Wait time? So you don't know how long it takes to get an H1B and you want to talk about "reasonable standards"? That's funny Getting a work visa to pretty much anywhere in the EU or Canada (or maybe even Australia) is quicker than an H1B.
- wyclif 6y agoThe key phrase there is "in the EU or Canada." But the point of the parent comment is that the USA isn't like those places and that there is such a thing as "American exceptionalism" in terms of having more entrepreneurs attracted enough to a culture of innovation to apply for visas.
