BTW back to the PhD for 100K- I hope you don't think thats what we were getting from the H1-B program... an equivalent to a ivy league PhD. The offshore people who had what it takes to get an ivy league PhD would have simply applied for one at one of the schools here. A degree from somewhere in bangalore is not the same as someone from Princeton.

Yeah people like me with a US PhD have to get a job under H1-B (and don't necessarily get paid $100,000 or less than US citizens in the same job as variously claimed on this thread. Oh and I am an economics professor at a private university). Getting a Green Card takes years. In the meantime you sign on under an H1-B. The problem is that the guys reviewing applications at INS are probably underqualified and haven't got a clue about the difference between US and foreign qualifications etc.
