Should the government increase or decrease the amount of temporary work visas given to high-skilled immigrant workers?

There should be a quota or cap on legal and skilled migration, and a complete ban on illegal migration

they should be no increase or decrease in immigrant workers, you should be hired base on the work you don and the skills you have

If companies cannot fill the position with a candidate from the nation, the skilled foreign workers should be sought.

Increase, but add protections for immigrants

Increase and regulate wages to be fair & equitable, eliminating the room for exploitation.

immigrants from certain countries may obtain visas.

Increase, as long as the immigrants are payed the same as Germans

i have to further research to get an opinion now

Balance with the local number of high skilled workers.

Yes but with fair wages and without freezing out german companies

Increase and they should pay them the same as our own citizens.

Fill what is needed

Ban visas and import foreign workers as slaves

Increase, only if there is not enough already in Germany.

Ban foreigners, and enslave people if the economy is going bad

Governments need to adjust such visas based on the need of the country at the time. If a high-skilled laborer is in need, more visas. If the country has such high-skilled laborers less or no visas

Increase, but only after we adequately equip our citizens with the necessary resources for these jobs

It should remain status quo, but we should be penalizing companies that look for loopholes and try to hire immigrants for cheaper work by making sure the minimum wage is increased.

I like the current amount, but reform the system so that companies cannot take advantage of the program to decrease wages.

Increase, but insure that their labor rights are not being infringed upon, and they're not being taken advantage of.

Decrease, companies are currently taking advantage of this program to decrease wages, even though Immigration helps to Make America Great

Increase, The whole point of the american dream is that everyone gets an opportunity.

The US should only issue any kind of visas to high-skilled heterosexual cisgender Christian immigrants.

Keep it the same for now, while remembering that we should be encouraging our own citizens to work toward these jobs.

Decrease, and abolish all work visa programs

Increase, our population is set to decline in the coming decades and the only true way to stop this in a first world nation (of which we are barely), is to bring in high skilled foreign labor so that they may set up a family here and keep the economic flow moving. Currently countries such as Japan and Korea which sought to keep out much foreign influence on the economy are feeling the strain of putting that burden on an aging population.

Decrease, and you should have to live in the US to have a job in the US

Economic cycles can be predicted based on population ages. To maintain a more uniform economy, a stable population across all ages should be implemented. Work visa numbers should be based on this factor and shortages needed in the labor force.

Increase and decrease based in the current economic state

It needs to be the right amount of visas per job. I have worked in hospitals that import nurses and refuse to high new graduates from local colleges/universities. They say the imported nurses have experience - that's a joke! I had to spend months with my colleagues training them.

No, make sure citizens are qualified while also letting in people.

Neither, but screening visas would have prevented some of the 911 hijackers.

I need more construction workers.

Personally I feel like if you feel like you need a "foreigner" to help you figure something out that's cool but I feel like it should be 50/50.

Keep it at the same rate but have the government make sure that these workers are being paid the same as U.S Citizens would and that they are being treated fairly. Have them treated as they have all the same basic rights we have under U.S.A’s government.

Increase at this current point in time, but the government should provide more incentives to prepare our citizens for these jobs

Neither decrease nor increase, regardless of who does the job it should get done to a high standard regardless of price or nationality.

Increase (in fact I favor abolishing this restriction on immigration)

Increase, and the government should also provide more incentives to prepare our citizens for these jobs
