If the US starts limiting highly skilled immigrants from coming to your country, you really have no chance to establish the US as the hub of the information economy. I actually think the reverse should be the case.
- smashing 15y agoDid you read the article? In only one place did it mention "immigration issues". The H1B Visa is "a non-immigrant visa in the United States under the Immigration and Nationality Act, section 101(a)(15)(H).
