>This is so unfair to citizens of other countries.

Not sure how it's unfair. The bill has a clause that anyone currently waiting will not be impacted.

>I think lifting the cap all together will be a better solution for everyone?

Not sure if you're serious. Even adding a few new green cards is politically impossible in the current climate. Just imagine the attack ads on TV for the next election.

Yes. I'm at least half serious.

    1. The system is unfair in the first place -- Indian's quota is not in proportion to their population.

    2. The bill tries to flush the queue, that leads to:

        2.1 The perpetuation of this unfair system.

        2.2 Other people who will still use this system get unfairly treated.

So I don't think this is a proper solution to this issue. If US really wants all the best and brightest, the cap should be lifted.
