To make sure this opinion is here:
The fact that they get to make this announcement is probably the biggest upside. Their base loves it. It makes people think they are doing something. There is an asymmetry in that if they quietly roll this back or it's blocked in court, it will generate only a tiny fraction of the publicity.
Probably not too controversial here to say that the economy wants these immigrants so good bet they'll keep getting hired.
It's a cruel strategy, but I think it's fair to say that it's far from certain it'll be a consistent one.
Don't let them troll you too much, stay strong.
Its the same model china has? Was one of the reasons the enclaves flourished (like hong kong).
And i dont get it, no actually i get cognitive dissonance whiplashfrom all that contradicting messaging. Millions of jobs will go due to AI, but millions of those unemployed must stay in addition?
In a country thats constantly portrayed as the worst on earth but constantly attracts the wretched of the earth. Who want the opportunities but not the melting pot. The recipe that produced the economy that allowed such luxuries must go, but those who detest that system must stay. If a set of opinions has no intersect why does it make a sound ?
