[quote=FlyerInHi]Flu, some people will benefit, but like you said on the other thread “they will go somewhere else”, talented immigrants that is.[/quote]
Wrong. The more talented they are the more desire they have coming here. This is the one country that they can maximize their earning potential. There’s a reason why there aren’t a lot of successful startups & IPOs coming out of those countries. A typical programmer with less than 10 years of experience earning the equivalent of about $6000/year in india. With that same experience they could make 15x more here. It’s still better even after you factor in the cost of living. Moreover, here you get better infrastructure, sanitation. Less traffic congestion (yes), less air pollution, etc…
