9/11 Because reindustrializing the US will cost money and the only way to service 40 trillions in debt is by devaluing it through inflation. So, we could have 10% early inflation, but if everyone have a job, if everyone's salaris can keep up with inflation...
8/11 Deport the illegals, which will put pression on raising American salaries and hiring Americans, it will also help in keeping the unemployment down and will alleviate the inflation impact that will inevitably come.
7/11 As I've been saying for years and years, to bring manufacturing and jobs back to US, the easiest way to do that is to destroy the dollar -- that's why Iran war, that's why tariffs, that's why creating economic friction and uncertainty. That's the strategy they are taking.
6/11 Another way to reduce the incentive to hire from abroad would be a weaker dollar. Many of these discussions exist because the dollar remains relatively strong. If it were weaker, producing, investing, and hiring locally would become more attractive.
5/11 By raising the barriers, only companies that truly need exceptional talent would go through the effort of bringing people from abroad. The country would still benefit from the very best skilled immigrants while creating more opportunities locally.
4/11 Is the visa system being used to bring people into the U.S. at lower wages, putting downward pressure on salaries? Yes, that does happen. this cannot continue. A possible solution could be ending the H1-B visa and let the companies find other ways to attract talent abroad.
3/11 Had I stayed in Brazil, I likely would have had a good life as I did in US. Different, certainly, but still a good life. So when people talk about immigration programs, I see the issue from a somewhat different perspective.
2/11 I have 25 years of experience working in the U.S. and about 5 years of experience working abroad before that. I am American, born in Connecticut, grew up in Brazil, and have always held citizenship in both countries.
1/11 Some say living in US is a trap. I am an engineer who earned a degree abroad and came to the U.S. legally. It is a trap... but not in the way people think. Now I have a house, a family, and cannot simply leave without disrupting their lives.
5/5 This data might be actually saying that is is a trend that is coming back and, as usual, men do it first and women only follow later when the advantages become obvious.
4/4 Maybe they are taking care their parent's house so they can inherit it once their parents are gone. Their is something that many in US tend to ignore today. Multigenerational houses was (and is) the norm almost every where in the world, and was the norm in US too before WW2.
3/3 Some of them may be starting business, or starting a carrier, and helping with the parents bills. Some of them may be living with their parents and taking care of them, so their parents don't have to leave their houses. Some of them are saving money for a house down payment.
2/2 I started to question this assumptions. Many man in US are still living with their parents, as they say. They also say they are all playing games all they long and being generally useless and a drag. I do not doubt that many are, but is it it all of them? I would think no.
1/1 I read somewhere that man are not leaving heir houses, that more women are leaving their houses while man are not. This normally is framed as how immature and idiots man are now these days.
8/ If they are in favor of green goal and increased regulation, they are making it harder for the young to get jobs. Every time they are in favor of expanding social welfare programs they are taking more money from the young and the working to give to themselves.
