As a Indian, I would love if Visa to outsourcing firms are restricted. Take Cognizant for example, they can't compete for salary with most startups in Bangalore or Pune (and work is not great as well) and yet people want to join them, just for onsite allure.

On other hand, I would love to have a easier way to start a business in US and a Visa program that helps US economy.

DISCLAIMER: I run a services startup in Bangalore.

I just added a comment about Cognizant: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7550824

I believe that it is a very unhealthy model that they have.
