I don't think you're being manipulative, but you are certainly oversimplifying the issue here. Of course everybody deserves a good job or good opportunities. But, just as such, everybody deserves happiness or kittens, or a good education. We strive for those things, generally, but we don't always hit the mark. When you make a statement like that, you completely ignore all of the other factors that matter. Ok, so somebody in India deserves a good tech job, does the American then move to India and take their place? Do they just lose their job and screw them? Do they get lucky and find another job? What if they loved that job? What if I want to move to Switzerland, do I deserve a good job there? What if they won't let me in? Do the have the right to do that? If they do, then aren't the Swiss preventing other people from these deserved jobs?
It's naive. Good intentions, but naive.
