I wholeheartedly support H1B visas for foreign doctors.
It will definitely and surely help a million struggling Americans and their astronomical medical bills, thereby contributing to the stethescreeps fund, so they can live the life of God, throw their wives out and post their profile on match.com standing in front of their Ferraris
For the last software engineering job we had open, we had 48 applicants, only five even had cover letters and only two were remotely qualified. One was the most arrogant person we ever met, the other was way to rude/crass to ever work in a professional environment. We ended up picking up an outsourced contract for a year simply because we couldn't find anyone decent in America. When it comes to educated/skilled jobs, it is really tough to find a good candidate right now (purely in my own personal experience).
Most of my coworkers at my last job were H1B visa holders. They were all from China and, yes, they were paid quite well. The boss, also from China, knew which were the good colleges over there and only hired the smartest and best qualified. Most of them had PhDs. The problem is that once you start working for a company as an H1B visa holder (or any other work visa) you are stuck working for them for a number of years until you can get your green card.
Recently (6 months ago) one of those former co-workers finally got his green card and he was able to quit his job. He took a better paying job, ironically enough, in China.

If they were willing to find another employer to sponsor them, they can get another job. The individual I hired from the Czech Republic was already working in the US under a H1B1 visa for 9 months for another company. I sponsored him for an additional year. He never did get permanent resident status, and now works in Ireland.
City-Data is an extremely interesting forum. It seems that no matter which forum I go into there are multiple small business owners who are worth lots of money, hire lots of people and know a whole lot about pretty much everything.
And these same people have thousands and thousands of posts, literally. Hmm?

Internet forums attract introverted people who would rather take a five minute mental break by going online than standing in the hallway talking to someone else.

Easier to find excuses for other people than it is to think they might actually be successful, isn't it? I am sure it makes you feel better about yourself!
