Why this fuss about H1s and why isn't there any political discussion about L and B visas? The answer is there is no organized representation by H1Bs and there is a huge demand for H1Bs in India. The H1B is the most unfair program and designed to exploit the H1B holders. This is the only program that is subject to quota and the only program where the spouse of the visa holder is not allowed to work. The program is designed to make the H1B holder an illegal alien just by losing his job and this fear make the H1B vulnerable for exploitation. The designers of this program knew that the program is unfair and yet more restrictions are added every other day. The media and the politicians know very well that the program benefits US and its businessmen and yet they don't hesitate to demonize the program. They can do it just because the H1Bs provides them the opportunity to treat them as slaves.
