Those jobs will flee the US. What has happened over the last few years is that many of those jobs have flown to Canada. And that's just with talking about making things slightly difficult, and not succeeding in actually changing rules.
I don't understand how people can go through this pandemic, where at least 50% of the people on this site are of the view that we can all work from wherever we want all time, and think that a company who is willing to pay 90k to hire somebody in the US, will not be willing to pay half that to hire that same person in Bangalore or Kiev instead.
- aksss 6y agoCanada has more restrictive immigration policies than the US.

- aksss 6y agoYeah, getting through a merit-based point system being the key. Perhaps US should adopt an immigration-on-merit system?
