But competition between companies is justified precisely because employees can freely and easily move between them. It's very different from countries: As a rule, people are stuck in the country they happen to live, especially when free movement is restricted. Free trade and free movement of workers need to go together. This principle is fundamental to a fair globalisation.

Free immigration, in the sense of the EU, would be the equivalent of people deciding they want to work for Google and they just show up and claim a cubicle. You can visit other countries as a tourist, even for relatively extended periods... You can buy property in other countries. You can start a business in another country... What's the corporate equivalent?
