We already bring in 1,200,000 immigrants per year.
Limiting the number of new graduates is exactly what doctors and engineers have done to keep their wages high.
Only a fool would destroy his own livelihood. VCs would never, ever support a policy that would threaten their oligopoly on the good deals, for example.
Don't be a sucker. No one is looking out for tech workers but ourselves.
P.S. If these companies can successfully relocate to Vancouver it totally torpedoes the VC-sponsored idea that San Francisco is somehow essential. Limiting all the jobs to one city is NOT good for tech workers. Silicon Valley is not a good place to make money because the cost of living is stupid. I would go so far to say that the Silicon Valley anti-density and anti-development culture and government make Silicon Valley a shit place to start a company, and companies should be moving.
I would rather work in Vancouver or San Diego or most any other urban center than get raped by rent-seeking landowners in SV.
