I’m very pro-redistribution, assuming it’s for the purpose of enabling people to be more effective at scale. Making it easier for people to move into & around the country, acquire useful skills & models, etc. So far gov seems pretty good at rallying resources *against* this
By the way, businesses in competitive industries are highly incentivized to allocate resources toward these ends. If you’re good at what you do, money is never the bottleneck — talent is. You absolutely want a highly skilled, geographically unrestrained labor force

You can disagree with my perspective, but I'm a shameless capitalist shill because I genuinely believe that compounding economic growth makes life better for the large-but-dwindling group of people who are currently suffering inescapably
Does geographically unrestrained matter as much nowadays with remote work beginning to gain in popularity? Might be better for gov to allocate resources towards retraining so you have the highly skilled portion at least?
Remote work is still kinda overrated —even within tech, where it actually makes sense. There's a lot of valuable work that requires physical presence, but beyond that, human beings tend to cooperate better & get more done when they can make use of evolutionary social scaffolding
And here I am sitting in Fiji, waiting ten months and counting for an H-1B to join a CPU design company in the Bay Area. (Working remotely, fortunately)
I’m able to use my talent for scientific research to develop technologies because of government funding. There money is the bottleneck; we don’t have a Bell Labs for industrial research anymore.
Businesses demanding cheap labor is an extension of the market demanding cheap goods and services. A lot of people want affordable education, but ask the same people if teachers should be paid more and you can see the contradiction.
Optimizing returns is business. Hence, not even socks are made locally.
