It's about repurposing existing underutilized infrastructure, not building more. Also, who do you think is paying to build, maintain and staff US embassies in foreign countries? Anyways my only point was that you're welcome to whatever policy you like on immigration like say ban all H1Bs but this proposal seems like an awfully roundabout and dishonest way to do it. Other countries just place straightforward laws in place and stick by them. the US instead has one set of standards in law but has begun to enforce an entirely differently set with tricks like wait times, USCIS agents etc without any communication, forewarning or legislation. It's plainly dishonest. But going by the immigration numbers, you might soon get your wish anyways.
