I hope the H-1B cap gets abolished.
If American programmers cannot compete with Indian programmers they need to:
1) Get more educated. Higher productivity commands higher wages. OR
2) Lower their wages. If they don't then inflation will do it for them.
It's simple macroeconomics.
Personally, I'm a Computer Engineer in Canada and we seem to be able to compete fine. I'm just about to graduate and between me and my close friends we have commanded salaries between 60 000 and 140 000.
You won't be getting those salaries for long.
The Fed govt just increased foreign worker visa from 1 to 3 year length.
