Let's not imagine scenarios that may or may not have anything to do with reality.

Answer this question: what evidence would you accept to show that major American tech companies are using skilled immigration to drive down their labor costs as the expense of American citizens?

discuss

order

I cannot keep up with the moving targets. My honest, sincere impression based on my best read of your posts is that you are making a sweeping claim against immigration along all axis and skill levels. I disagreed.

Now your claim is that massive American tech companies are profit-focused, narrow-vision entities with no social qualms or human values, and I could not agree more :-). But that’s orthogonal to the wider immigration discussion.

1. I didn't move any targets and your impression is clearly not at all sincere.

2. That is not my claim at all, since you're dropping half of the claim.

I think we're done here.
