Depends on the other country though. If you hire a German he will price in these things into the salary he asks for because he has to pay them in Germany. So isn't it more about tax evasion in other countries and the reserve currency effect?
On way the American government disincentivizes hiring Americans: If I hire a remote US employee, I have to pay payroll taxes, their healthcare, and may deal with multi-state nexus issues. If I hire a remote foreign employee, there are no employer side payroll or tax issues.

I don’t think so. Healthcare is cheaper in Germany and since the typical remote worker countries are not Germany, they are countries where tax evasion is the norm, the US should do something about this for their citizens.

Yep, or if they hire H1B, they can get a top 2% software engineer from India for 70k (salary and sponsorship) instead of paying market rates of 150-300k. Plus avg American, even top 95% have to compete with top 1% of world. I don’t know how to fix it
