The better question is what if LSU’s entire administration, medical and coaching staff got fired and replaced with temp foreign workers because they agreed to a reduced salary? Are you in favor of that?
Personally, I don’t have a problem with either

There are 1000% Chinese, African etc academics that are capable of doing the same jobs and willing to take half the salary

These are accounted for with tariffs, which yes I do support. The average American spends $4500 in sales taxes. If a company needs to bring in talent on H1b visa, they can pay $4500 tariff for each year over 18 the worker is. Yeah thatd be fair
Tariffs are not 1:1 … you forget local sales tax receipts, job creation, supply contracts , etc. Plus, what do you do when unemployment goes to zero? No more production? Also, keep in mind that means that you will have to employ the least competitive and efficient workers.
The simpleton argument for “no more immigration” or no foreign workers Does not stand up to the real world.

Not arguing against you, just emphasizing the point that Musk only wants foreign workers because he can pay them less, not because they’re better than Americans. I just wish maga would be honest and change there theme to “Billionaires first America second”

Are you responding to my post? It makes zero sense in context to what I said.

It’s literally the same exact situation. LSU and every other university goes out and recruits the most talented players (or workers) and pays them (a scholarship) to make their team the best it can be. You should be against this because a natural born American lost out on that scholarship. BUT..you aren’t against it because you are either a basement dwelling troll or lazy libtard who loves quotas as long as it helps the team that you happen to root for.
If you’re going to be a dumb@ss you should at least be consistent

Correct. It becomes a cost of doing business which instead of a deterrent. You proved my point.

If you don’t understand economics why are you so entrenched in your beliefs? Sounds like you treat politics like your religion…typical libtard.

Again..if you don’t understand the topic of discussion you should probably just stay out of the conversation. Let the adults talk.
I do appreciate your acknowledgment of your lack of comprehension…most libtards fail to have any self awareness

One player isn’t a big deal, you’re making weird assumptions. Also you never answered my question. Would you be OK if the majority of LSU’s sports department got replaced by foreigners?
Nobody cares if 1 foreigner who’s among the best at his craft gets an American job. It’s a major issue if hundreds or thousands of Americans who are producing at a good level are being replaced by foreigners only because the foreigners are willing to take a much lower paying job.
Your logic is giving big time spoiled brat vibes. I can you like to argue with your family and they let you think you’re winning the argument.

Get better at your job and you won’t have to worry about getting replaced.
