I'm not one to argue facts and figures if I don't know where they're coming from, so I won't dispute your numbers other than to say the numbers I mentioned for high-skilled worker Visas came from the Washington Post Editorial page, generally a reliable source. They report in their March 12 post http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/03/11/AR2007031100986.html that Visas for these highly skilled workers (doctors, lawyers, engineers) have been capped at 65,000 per year. If the actual numbers are different than that, am happy to continue the discussion. That's my source, what's yours?- Comment by Weaver
Poor Bill Gates, he's replaced 1% of the entire America's Civilian Labor Force with H1B Guestworkers and he's still not happy. Year, USCIS H1B Initial Employment Approvals, UCSIS H1B Continuing Employment Approvals 2000 136787 120853 2001 201079 130127 2002 103584 93953 2003 105314 112026 2004 130497 156921 2005 116927 150204 total 794188 Initial H1B total 764084 Continuing H1B Current Total H1B 1,558,272 Intracompany (L1) visa admissions have been running about at about 300,000 per year (since 2000) with a maximum of 5 years, so there goes another 1% of America's Civilian Labor Force. There are 3 million visas available to Mr. Gates, what in the world is he complaining about?- Comment by Somik Raha
