Alright. So offshore development it is!
Putting snark aside, I'd rather work with the H-1B visa holders who are here locally. Not only does it make it easier for me to coordinate and deliver my projects, but there's a lot of local tax revenue being generated by these folks that we lose when they're working overseas.
I've been wondering since the 90s why I don't work with more Americans, but that ship has done sailed: a lot of Americans don't want to do this work. Even though it brings good pay with it. I don't know why that is, but that's the way it is.
But forcing us to use more and more offshore labor? That's just stupid.
