I understand that he is likely right about that, at least with respect to
some large companies.
But not for reasons that should please most of us, in my opinion.
Aren't some big players likely to be willing to eat the $100K assessment for each of their
very high-value employees if they judge that they will, over the long run, face less competition from startups and smaller firms that can't comfortably afford that cost burden? Shouldn't we want as many as possible of the world's best and brightest to come to America and help build the AI and high-tech future we envision?
If so, I think we should want more, not fewer, awards of H-1B visas.
