The problem with people like you is you're just as bad as the people you're complaining about. The world isn't black and white and such mechanisms can both be sought out based on greed and yet still have positive consequences. Indeed I agree with you on some level, the greater good is about everybody, not just the people living in your local vicinity, but are you sure that's what this is?

You really think you're doing the greater good by stealing the best and brightest from countries that probably need them quite a bit more than your own, while ignoring the locals who just want a fair shake at a decent life? All of this in order that some have so much money that it has long become meaningless? That sounds a lot more like keeping the other countries down while lowering your own standard of living, which seems to match the ever growing rich / poor divide.

I can't say I have a lot of experience working with H1B visas, but I have a wealth of experience working with immigrants in Britian from similar counties, and those people are almost exclusively middle class+ in order to have recieved the type of education that is desirable within the US. This may not offer quite the same quality of life that it does in the west, but they're hardly from a poverty stricken background.

I don't know how to make the world a better place, but I doubt helping the likes of multi-billionaires become ever richer while they sit on that money until the end of time is really the way forward. The schemes are almost certainly abused to hire cheaper workers. The ridiculously unfulfillable adverts have been proving this for years.
