I find the complaining about recruiters to be pretty obnoxious. Might as well enjoy the attention while it lasts. Soon enough Zuck's PAC will succeed in flooding the U.S. market with software engineers from India and China, and you won't be getting those bothersome recruiting calls.

You really think Zuck's PAC will succeed? Right now the political climate is being more controlled by the right, and it seems they're dead set on combating any immigration reform of any sort anytime in the foreseeable future. I'm pretty sure it's not happening, but would like to hear your thoughts on why it might.

I'm afraid it may be a compromise that allows the left to trumpet forward progress in immigration reform, while allowing the right to give ground in a way that doesn't involve any compromise on their core opposition to immigration from Mexico and Latin America.

I'm sure part of the plan is to keep engineers in fear. Seems to be working, huh?
