As professionals, software engineers should be more supportive of each other regardless of their backgrounds. America has profited from some of the best international talent. That talent deserves to receive their fair share of rewards. That is the American spirit. Not unfettered self-centered greed. On the other hand, increasing the number of H1bs from the current number is pure corporate greed. My opinion is that they should just speed up the green card process instead of increasing H1b numbers. A lot of hard working and honest immigrants keep waiting in their current jobs for their green card to get approved. In some cases, it takes 6-10 years to get a green card. If these folks get some job mobility without jeopardizing their green card status, there will suddenly be enough mobile engineers and wages will rise very fast.
