International talent will now reside and pay taxes offshore, if American companies can retain the talent.

I think it odd ppl are upset abt this. The EU has been doing it for years. I lived in France 94/95. The only work I could get was under the table & for less $, because I’m a US citizen. They hire from the 27 EU countries 1st only if there’s no one will they hire from the US.

Amazon is based on forgery, that looks like ok to use mine. But forgery is illegal. So Amazon should pay me. Else, can not use.

Immigrant talent contributed and continues to do so in American Economic growth. Please revoke the Executive order and allow non immigrant visa H1B, L1, etc. realDonaldTrump sundarpichai satyanadella

Throwing a bone to his minions since he had such a bad week/weekend. Lost 2 Supreme Court verdict, lost on book release and then the no show at his venue. So much winning!

It's no surprise that Amazon is pissed off because instead of hiring some of the millions of unemployed Americans they would rather exploit immigrants and pay slave wages.

Sorry Jeff you can’t exploit underpaid foreign slave labor anymore

It might help stop human trafficking.

Lux Luthor wants cheap labor as always hypocrites 😂😂

realDonaldTrump swamppy talking

No......Blacks need jobs.......Democrats tell you they are the most unemployed.....Let’s get Black unemployment down first. ! What’s wrong with this effort?

There are plenty of workers here looking for jobs Jeffry. Why do you care so much about foreign workers? Cheaper? You don’t have enough money that you don’t pay taxes on?

He’s putting Americans first... how is that not obvious

So his company can exploit those workers?
