Looks like there's already a 6 year max that is obviously being abused. > Please educate yourself, because you do come off as xenophobic. I do not care about foreign workers, only domestic workers. I don't think immigration should be tied to employment for any reason. It has nothing to do with cultures, or races, or nationalities, it has to do with wages. There are too many poor people in the US that are not able to move up economically for a variety of reasons, one of which is a large influx of white collar labor.

> Looks like there's already a 6 year max that is obviously being abused. How is it being abused? E.g. it is perfectly legal to apply for a green card after your H1B and there are quotas for immigrants from each country. Alternatively, after living in a country for 5+ years someone may marry a US citizen. Should it be banned? Are we to impose a ban on dating anyone who is not a US national? > I don't think immigration should be tied to employment for any reason. So what should immigration be tied to then? What are other reasons for someone to be in the US for extended period of time. > I do not care about foreign workers, only domestic workers. Replace "workers" with "people" and here you have the reason why you are a bit xenophobic. > There are too many poor people in the US that are not able to move up economically for a variety of reasons, one of which is a large influx of white collar labor. There is literally no evidence to support the claim that white collar skilled immigrant workers do anything but create MORE job opportunities in the United States.
