A much better solution is something like the hire act.

I'm not sure how that act would differentiate between hiring someone in India vs outsourcing to India.

Also, how would it differentiate between outsourcing and SAAS?

A _better_ solution would be to remove the H1-B cap and continue to skim the best graduates worldwide. Same with removing the green card quotas. Make sure if someone gets an H1-B, they can transition to a green card and then to citizenship.

That's always been the US's super power.

Keep the density of innovation in the USA by inviting people in.

The solution is obviously tariffing lines of code.
