Software developers create software development jobs. H1bs are a contributor to the fact that the US is the center for the software development industry. If companies weren't deciding to headquarter in the bay area to be at the center of things, there wouldn't be nearly as much upward pressure on US developer compensation.
- iraqmtpizza 3y agoFirst of all, I don't care about the bay area, I care about the country at large. Secondly, software companies shouldn't be headquartered in the bay area when there are better states. Thirdly, you are wrongfully assuming that they all would leave the US if H-1Bs were curtailed. Fourthly, you don't specify where they would move to and how they could do without access to the labor pool here. It doesn't have to be a race to the bottom
