> What a horrible take. Globalization of tech jobs is net positive for the whole world including the US. We're all gonna have more thing made cheaper and faster, isn't that great?

That will definitely hinder the progress of local companies who will miss out on good talent.

Sure, it's beneficial for some and not beneficial for others.

US employers win some

US employees lose some

Oversees employers lose some

Oversees employees win some

But it's going to be a net positive for the whole world because everybody else wins because they get better products and services at better prices.

Not true, the net positive is just a hypothesis, in reality they will become bonus and stock grant for the execs
