I do have a strong opinion in this topic. I consider H1B as bonded labor you cannot change jobs and employers exploit it.

3. Cut out degree requirement. Steve Jobs didn’t had degree. Learn from previous data re successful immigrants 4. End the nationality cap. Focus on lottery for diversity. Merit isn’t distributed w.r.t nationality

My proposa may have flaws but most important factor that causes employers to exploit and pay low wage is employee cannot move easily and they are stuck.

"at least that much" -- but is that recurring yearly like the salary itself? Or are you proposing paying only the first year's salary? Of course, the H1B was never meant to be what it is now: it was meant for people of exceptional talent & education like A. Einstein. Not for IT.

Trump might support ending it completely, but then even the justifiable original function of the H1B would be lost. We can save our hi-tech industry and job market without going quite that far.

Top salary would not help companies that can't compete with FANG and alike.

I generally support this (as an immigrant, but not on H1B) but wonder how it might affect tradition of immigrant entrepreneurs and leaders. Both high and low skilled provide economic benefit.
