So, we have two tales. In the USA, H1B visas are critical to acquire talent for tech because of critical shortage of talent OR they are used to suppress salaries and replace American workers with less expensive indentured servants who have very limited rights.
In both cases those workers come and there is a large pool of those willing to come, because they view the opportunity to work in the USA as a way to potentially live there long term. The is still the view that the USA presents a unique opportunity to have personal freedom and be rewarded for hard work.
Iām not aware of China having those characteristics or being perceived as having those characteristics by technical talent globally.
