Working more for less is the issue, that's exactly what this boils down to.

Yes, it’s a major component at least. I’ve wondered if there should be protections against this to maintain some baseline of safety for people’s workloads, but that would never fly in North America as far as I can tell. And it could actually harm some people who legitimately need to work overtime to take care of their families.

Sorry, I wasn’t making a case for that argument. I’m only pointing out that it exists, it’s a prominent way of thinking, and it’s worth considering.
I don’t personally subscribe to that belief.
Are you and Elon saying that India’s education system and universities are just plain better than MIT, Stanford, etc?
If not, then are Indians just genetically smarter than Americans, so that their pool is better?
It just seems like immigrants are willing to work more for less, so that in the future when they’re citizens, they can work less for more.
