I've been active against the H1-B program, which is bringing in 200,000 foreign engineers and programmers

I understand your position. If no new ones come in, and we don't train enough new ones, it raises wages. My oldest son is making one hell of a good living because of the shortage. And I know it will help older Software engineers get jobs.

But a lot of these jobs will just continue to go overseas if you don't let them in. It is so easy now, with the Internet, to set up centers in India and hire these people over there for $400 a month.
