1. COMMENT
Infinite H-1Bs
In his testimony on Capitol Hill, Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates
called for removing all limits on the number of H-1B visas
issued as a way of boosting America's competitiveness. Gates
said there is a "terrible shortfall" in the number of visas
available to high-tech companies and cautioned that the nation
will "find it infinitely more difficult to maintain its
technological leadership if it shuts out the very people who are
most able to help us compete," and that "America has always done
its best when we brought the best minds to our shores."

We welcome readers to share their opinion by writing to
