Neither here nor there.
I don't think I like the part about 'their' employees coming with them.
Same here, we have more than enough people here in Iowa needing good paying jobs.

Not hispanic illegals. They'll want the Indian H1bs to increase.I don’t think the immigrants are going to be renting the buildings.
Maybe, but it's still too expensive to move them here. With the expansion of Zoom! and other online services offering virtual offices, why spend more than you have to?Not hispanic illegals. They'll want the Indian H1bs to increase.

That doesn't stop biotech in San Diego and LaJolla. Nor does it stop them up in the San Jose area.Maybe, but it's still too expensive to move them here. With the expansion of Zoom! and other online services offering virtual offices, why spend more than you have to?
Or well to say - it didn't.That doesn't stop biotech in San Diego and LaJolla. Nor does it stop them up in the San Jose area.
I never want to see a cubicle again...EVER.Or well to say - it didn't.
There are lots of things changing out there these days. I would have never believed that we would send our whole engineering staff out to work from home. It's strange to go see their cubicle jungle so empty.

I have pondered this question for years. And I still don't understand the mindset of people who delude themselves into thinking that they don't need to prepare because others will be willing to share, or forced to share, if necessary. I don't understand those who prioritize material items over caring for their families. I don't understand those who say they can't afford it, when by all appearances, they can. I understand money is tight, been there and done that, but you do what you have to do to prepare. I just don't understand those who say they'll be coming to my house when they can't feed themselves and their children.
And I also don't understand those who do prepare, but say they will be happy to share with all who need it. Maybe I haven't achieved the level of Christ-like compassion that they have. I know I have so many faults and sins to overcome. I'm working on it. But in the meantime, I take the words of the Apostle Paul to heart: "But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel" (1 Timothy 5:8).

... don't make our family out to be unkind or mean for not sharing our food. You were the one who neglected your family and refused to prepare. And if you didn't care enough about them to prepare for them, why should I?
