> comp for was comparable anyone else on the team at their same level

You're so close to getting it... keep going...

Not GP, but also not getting it. Are you referring to how they take up a slot on the team that would otherwise go to an American?

  • The argument is it drives down wages across the board so obviously the wages would be the same.

There's no conflict. They can be comparable to anyone else on their team while being better than the average American developer.

Seriously. GP is accidentally highlighting the issue.

  • America should want fewer highly paid tech workers so those that remain are paid marginally more?

    That’d be a dumb way to run an economy.
