Should Germany increase or decrease the amount of temporary work visas given to high-skilled immigrant workers?
Skilled temporary work visas are usually given to foreign scientists, engineers, programmers, architects, executives, and other positions or fields where demand outpaces supply. Most businesses argue that hiring skilled foreign workers allows them to competitively fill positions which are in high demand. Opponents argue that skilled immigrants decrease middle class wages and job tenure.

Decrease. Temporary work is bad for the economy due to employee replacement costs. Instead, a smaller number of visas should be given which are permanent. Also, the high temporary quantity harms wages of workers regardless of orign.
Yes but with fair wages and without freezing out german companies

Increase at this current point in time, but the government should provide more incentives to prepare our citizens for these jobs
@7PTCG384yrs4Y
I am satisfied with the current amount, but make it easier for immigrants to obtain these temporary work visas
@7PTCG384yrs4Y
Increase, and the government should also provide more incentives to prepare our citizens for these jobs
@8QDSNZY4yrs4Y
Increase, but I'd rather just grant them citizenship
@7PTCG385yrs5Y
Decrease, we should prioritize offering these jobs to qualified domestic workers and utilize skilled immigrant workers only when demand exceeds our available supply.

Increase, but only after we adequately equip our citizens with the necessary resources for these jobs
@7PTCG384yrs4Y
I am satisfied with the current amount, but sponsor and increase skilled corporate training programs so domestic workers may successfully compete for these positions
@3L4VJYP4yrs4Y
Decrease, companies are currently taking advantage of this program to decrease wages, and we should create our avenues for citizenship
