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.

If companies cannot fill the position with a candidate from the nation, the skilled foreign workers should be sought.
@9D52TBK1yr1Y
Increase, but add protections for immigrants
@9SRMBBD3mos3MO
Increase, but also make sure that companies do not take advantage of this to decrease wages for local workers
@9LYCYNB7mos7MO
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.
@9JQCDLG10mos10MO
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
@9HC3W5Y1yr1Y
There should be a quota or cap on legal and skilled migration, and a complete ban on illegal migration
@9GYBJML1yr1Y
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
