Why are people from NYC more deserving of a job than her?

NYC more deserving

That ain’t how this works. If somebody is has some sort of special skill that is needed or there is a shortage, fine.

But using foreign labor to lower wages locally, is just a bad policy for the state and for the workers, only people benefiting is the rent seeker.

Why would anyone who works for money shill for the benefit of the rent seeker?

Have you seen nearly Facebook America? They regularly vote against their own interests. Wouldn’t surprise me at all that the same people are the ones barely making ends meet, are advocating against unions, being pro corporate business, and laughing all the way to bankruptcy and homelessness day by day because it makes them feel superior to just one person.

I know this isn’t what you meant. But you know de-localizing jobs would probably have the effect of lowering rents.

only people benefiting is the rent seeker.

And the people who are now employed, and their local community that they spend that money in.

Again why is someone in NYC more deserving of it than someone else?

Naive take… Rent seeker always maximizes profit.

NYC resident pays taxes and consumes in NYC.

Why are you advocating of transferring money out of the community? Why would anyone advocate for lower wages in their community?

This common sense stuff. Your whole weird play on “deserving” is a clown take. Disingenuous at best. This has nothing to do with deserving and everything to do with labor economic and labour policy which should be set for the benefit of tax paying public.

So again why would NYC or American taxpayer care about an Asian worker competing purely on price? What benefit do they get?

You know rent seeker don’t give two fucks about her lol
