"Live, work, spend, pay taxes" is valuable from the perspective of the government, but what's the point of keeping them local from the point of view of the company hiring the body shop? You can't use them to work on government stuff, which tends to require citizenship, so if it's just regular business, you could offshore them, and not pay the "rent in New Jersey" tax.
- rad_gruchalski 2y agoWhat’s the point? To brag how jobs remain in the US and MAGA. It makes sense to a certain extent. You need to secure the infrastructure for that particular job to remain in your country but you want cheaper labor. From an employer perspective it shifts the balance of power. Those pesky citizens, they change jobs, have all these rights and demands… The visa is tied to the employer. The visa holder cannot just change an employer without the new employer applying for a new visa. Don’t like your job? Suck it up. Boss is a bully? Suck it up. Underpaid for your skills? Suck it up. Otherwise leave the country within 60 days max.
