I didn't downvote you, but from what I've read (mostly here on HN), there are people in the industry advocating for easier work visas to bring skilled developers into the US to fill a talent vacuum. I'm not sure how accurate that is (I'm going on memory here), but perhaps that's why you were downvoted.
- lkrubner 11y agoIf someone has a source more reliable than the Bureau of Labor Statistics then I am happy to defer to it. But in that case those people should post a link to the source that they regard as more reliable. They should not downvote me simply because they don't like what the Bureau of Labor Statistics has reported. The issue of work visas have been discussed many times on Hacker News. The argument has been made, many times, that "to fill a talent vacuum" is an excuse that industry uses to get workers at a lower wage.
