My solution, ironically, is tariffs. If there was a $50,000/year tariff
for each H1B brought in, companies would only bring in the actual 'best
of the best'.

 This is true, but what about universities which may not have such
budgets?  I am thinking perhaps most of the people who really deserve
H1-B visas would be employed in academia or research.  But the idea
is not an unworkable one.

When I got into grad school in Mechanical Engineering at TAMU in 1982, I was the only USA citizen.  The rot has been going on that long.  I dropped out when I found a job that spring when I got my undergraduate degree.
