What is the benefit of large scale immigration beyond helping with the low birth rate? Switzerland is a successful economically prosperous country with a strong cultural identity.
Who is also countinously looking for people going to work there.
I got a call for a remote job for a U.N. agency two weeks ago.
They are calling it immigration, but it's more people going there for tax benefits or because have been called there or because the U.N. and many Financial or Legal HQ offices are there.
On the flip side, it's a brain drain for the exporting countries, of course.
Any profession which has inbuilt labour limits (chartered accounting/lawyer) means those professions get paid fair market value.
This is absolutely not true. I don't know why anyone would lie so blatantly.
Engineering and CS graduates are present in abundance, and the job market is brutal.
I suppose it will be mostly used by tech companies.
What do you think about that?
I've lived in a major urban region of Switzerland for the last 12 years and I could not disagree more. I've seen companies looking for capable software engineers for years, including paid relocation and arranging temporary housing for them to move into.
BTW an abundance of graduates don't always equal "good engineers". There is also an abundance of mediocre engineers.
If a country already has a high per capita GDP why does it need more money? What do the people in the country gain from more money in total? More labor generally lowers how much workers are paid so each person in the country is likely to get less money afterwards. More productive workers means more workaholic workers which again moves the bar so locals are now expected to work more as well. Again, a net loss for the existing population.
