> While Andrew Ng is devastated that an H1B worker and their family has to pack their bags and return to their home country, one American worker will have the opportunity to enter the job market and feed his/her family.
And the H1B will also take their monetary capital (above average) and work potential somewhere else.
Which means, one lesser person paying rent, one lesser person buying local produce, one lesser person buying American cars, one lesser person paying taxes, one lesser internet connection, one lesser cellphone connection, one lesser purchaser of iphone.
Not to mention, the loss of productive work done, years worth of training that makes up that individual all lost.
How many jobs do you gather were lost by removing a productive individual now?
