Throw away the H1B, introduce streamlined high skill immigration to the US. Top 1% of talent from all over the world should be able to move in under 2 weeks.

The first country that cracks this will have streets paved with gold.

Quite a think to crack. My company takes 2 months to decide on whether to hire the top 1% of a very specific profession.

> Top 1% of talent

How do you determine that?

You pay an H1-B hiring consultant $500K to forge resumes for everyone you're hiring.
