> Ban revoking offers only for overseas employees (who are hurt most by this). This will ensure that the hiring bar for overseas employees is set sky high and it will already be harder for them to compete

Laws are generally created to benefit people who are not described as “overseas”



Well fuck your laws if they will discriminate me based on whereever seas I come from or whatever.

So much for the land of the free, supposing these people have their visas and shit in order, I don't see why the law shouldn't protect them too


I’m not sure why you are referring to the “land of the free,” as I was referring to laws of countries in general. Laws are nearly always created to benefit the country creating them.


Sorry in HN I default to US centrism.

Anyways I'm assuming you can be legally imigrating to a country at which points laws should be make to protect you too.

I don't see how is there any morality in laws that disregard a human being due to their passport or lack of thereof.

I understand it is what it is, still madness.


It was my understanding we were talking about laws making companies want to hire from within at the expense of hiring people from “overseas”.

That is, I was under the impression we were discussing things that happened before the legal immigration process had began.
