@AmandaL10040047 @GirlNamedMarley My grandmother once said, it isn't the story you've heard a thousand times, the gift is to see life through their eyes; that's family.
@TheBenchCoolers@1VetsAllegory@BBCWorld And no, there is no shortage of intelligent, hard working Americans. The equation is simply, if there's no reward for doing the most intellectually challenging work, then why would anyone choose to do it? If you want innovation, you have to prioritize, that means money!! Simple.
@TheBenchCoolers@1VetsAllegory@BBCWorld And people are typically required to live near work, so they can be at work, in the cubical, monitored. Until 2020, remote working was largely not an option.
@TheBenchCoolers@1VetsAllegory@BBCWorld Companies, academia, research orgs would all rather pay for a visa and cheap labor, than pay the full rate. It's the Boomer legacy; bottom line thinking, maximize profits. It's not complicated, they don't even try to hide it. No morality, just legality.
Good news for the American workers! Maybe now companies will increase wages commensurate with work... instead of bringing in cheap labor. How do you compete against someone willing to accept half wages in order to escape a second/third world country!?
