Mmm is this a comment from the 60s, Chinese people don't dream to come to America, we go back to our homeland to make money sorry to burst buble


H-1B stats disagree.


20K Chinese H1B Visas are a drop in the bucket in terms of opportunity. H1Bs are for people looking to make modest living, the real money is back in China. Common thing you hear from many nouveau riche Chinese is how poor the west are, young professional couple pulling 300K household income can barely afford to live nicely after inflation. Of course, that's still a very comfortable life, but western upper middle class is not aspirationally "rich" by Chinese standards anymore.


You will never convince them. It’s the only way they avoid concluding that they are either a) screwed by the system or b) the system which screws.


The point is the demand still vastly exceeds the supply.


I don't say all Chinese are trying to move to a western country, I refer to Chinese people who do so.
