That was the very basis of H1B...to bring in qualified experts due to shortage. so the only way to solve is to "produce" more experts locally..colleges and etc Increasing the salary may shift workers from one company to another but the DEMAND and SHORTAGE will still exist.

" and the main reason "Technology trade groups have called for an increase in the cap, saying they can't find enough workers with specialized skills."
