From the uscis site for H1-B I'm not sure where 50+% more like 75+% meet this barrier.

This is not zenophobic. We have seen Canada realizing they dug themselves into a hole acting as the slush fund for FAANG near BS.

At what point does "specialized knowledge" come to enforcement. "Founders" are different than what the majority of large scale employers are doing.

Worked at Borland in 1992/4, Netscape in 1996/7, visa holders then were 10x the job mill diplomas of now.

So how do we end Corp America working the market in their favor?

Elmo having 'Rumps ear? Yeah, that will be good for america. Twitter basically fired everyone but visa bound people.

The occupation requires:

    Theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge; and
    Attainment of a bachelor's or higher degree in the specific specialty (or its equivalent) as a minimum for entry into the occupation in the United States.

The position must also meet one of the following criteria to qualify as a specialty occupation:

    Bachelor’s or higher degree or its equivalent is normally the minimum entry requirement for the particular position
    The degree requirement is common to the industry in parallel positions among similar organizations or, in the alternative, the job is so complex or unique that it can be performed only by an individual with a degree
    The employer normally requires a degree or its equivalent for the position
    The nature of the specific duties is so specialized and complex that the knowledge required to perform the duties is usually associated with the attainment of a bachelor’s or higher degree.*

For you to qualify to perform services in a specialty occupation you must meet one of the following criteria:

    Hold a U.S. bachelor’s or higher degree required by the specialty occupation from an accredited college or university
    Hold a foreign degree that is the equivalent to a U.S. bachelor’s or higher degree required by the specialty occupation from an accredited college or university
    Hold an unrestricted state license, registration, or certification that authorizes you to fully practice the specialty occupation and be immediately engaged in that specialty in the state of intended employment

Have education, specialized training, and/or progressively responsible experience that is equivalent to the completion of a U.S. bachelor’s or higher degree in the specialty occupation, and have recognition of expertise in the specialty through progressively responsible positions directly related to the specialty.*
