Another thing hurting Americans is wage expectations. I have guys in South America, Egypt, and Eastern Europe working for $40k/yr in jobs that it would take 70-110k to get an American.
And, they work harder and smarter, expect little to no benefits, and will appreciate bonuses and raises far more
This is insane btw. Why on Earth should you get to hijack the infrastructure that Americans built up over the course of centuries, exploit that created value gap and give it to foreigners, all in the name of further enriching yourself at the expense of your fellow countrymen?
If you believe those foreign workers are truly smarter, more industrious, superior etc., you ought to be required to leave the country and go work with them in their respective homelands. No more freeloading off the structure that Americans built; go build your own structure with those superior workers you like to boast about.
Of course nobody ever does this because deep down you understand the value your company is generating is contingent primarily not on you or your workers but on the societal and economic system that white Americans built up over generations.
