My pleasure, it's fun to debate other politely over the internet. I find conservatives to be a little more even-tempered, even when I disagree with some of them. Like everyone else, I may lurk on twitter, but the interface is too annoying to deal with. You also all have a lot of snarky assholes posting gifs too instead of writing coherent thoughts because they are lazy. You're better off staying away from big tech websites like Facebook, Twitter etc. entirely if you want to find normal people to talk to.
If the H-1B visa program and other similar visa programs aren't going to be scrapped, the next best thing to "reform" them would be to raise the minimum salary for H-1B visa workers far above the $60,000 threshold to avoid going through the burden of proof that no other qualified permanent resident or US citizen applicants could be found.
Her proposed measure for allocating H-1B visa based on the highest salaries offered, rather than it being randomly probably had a lot of other poison pill amendments that no immigration-reductionist GOP representative or senator could support. I haven't heard much noise about it since.
Leaving countries alone isn't too idealistic. In fact, it's the simplest solution to chose from. I think you're confusing globalism with globalization (e.g. international trade).
Handing over law-making decisions within your country's borders to an outside body like the UN spells trouble. Other countries can just screw you over in committees. It's much easier for countries to trade on a one-on-one basic. That's why Trump publicly renounced trade pacts like the TPP in favor of bilateral trade deals and neutered the WTO appeals court.

Silicon Valley, congresswoman Zoey Lofgren has proposed such a measure a once, but considering she used to work as an immigration lawyer and is in the pocket of big tech, so I am suspicious of her motivations (after all she is the lead author of HR 1044...) .
