It comes down to this: do you want America to WIN or do you want America to LOSE.
If you force the world’s best talent to play for the other side, America will LOSE.
End of story.

There are over 330 million people in America. Surely, there must be enough among them to build your ultimate team? Why would you deny real Americans that opportunity by bringing foreigners here?

Your understanding of the situation is upside-down and backwards.

This is not about handing out opportunities from some magical hat. You don’t get it. This is blindingly obvious when looking at NBA teams, as the physical differences are so obvious to see. However, the MENTAL differences between humans are FAR bigger than the physical differences!!

🚨SILICON VALLEY'S BIGGEST LIMITATION: ENGINEERING TALENT SHORTAGE
The U.S. semiconductor industry alone needs over 160,000 engineers by 2032, driven by $250B+ in new investments.
Demand for AI experts has skyrocketed, with Elon calling the talent war the "craziest" ever.
Elon Musk@elonmusk· Dec 25, 2024@amasad There is a permanent shortage of excellent engineering talent. It is the fundamental limiting factor in Silicon Valley.

@elonmusk · Dec 25, 2024
No, we need more like double that number yesterday!
The number of people who are super talented engineers AND super motivated in the USA is far too low.
Think of this like a pro sports team: if you want your TEAM to win the championship, you need to recruit top talent wherever they may be. That enables the whole TEAM to win.

Genuinely curious: Are there actual instances where qualified native born Americans couldn’t get jobs in tech because foreigners took all of them?
I’d be surprised if it’s true because at any given point there are hundreds of thousands of unfilled jobs in tech.
