August 05, 2025The $240,000 Problem: How Immigration Fees Create Indentured Servants
The hidden costs of America's immigration system go far beyond government fees. Melissa Harms reveals how prevailing wage requirements force companies to pay H-1B workers exorbitant salaries with the intent to protect US workers. Moreover, foreign workers become trapped in "indentured servitude" for decades, unable to change jobs or leave the country. From Hong Kong labs replacing American research to families separated by 12-year green card waits, this episode exposes the human cost of bureaucratic incompetence.

August 04, 2025Paper Planes and Brain Drain: America's Medieval Immigration Lottery is Bleeding Talent
Every year, America educates the world's brightest minds—then kicks them out. Immigration attorney Melissa Harms exposes how our archaic H-1B visa system forces Silicon Valley companies to mail paper applications like it's 1925. With only 85,000 visas for hundreds of thousands of applicants, Stanford PhDs have the same 25% lottery odds as entry-level workers. Meanwhile, $44 billion in international student investment flees to countries that actually want global talent. This isn't immigration policy—it's economic sabotage.
