Because we actually like having a life to enjoy rather than be stressed about work and making money all the time. We get more than 3 weeks of vacation typically 5-8 weeks + 10-20 days public holidays. We get unlimited sick days. We don't worry about health insurance. We get pensions and safety nets. We have real labour laws that protect us from instant layoffs... Yes, we make less money but we actually get to live and enjoy life.
At the top of the employment ladder at these big tech companies we have none of those concerns other than mass layoffs, which is pretty unlikely most of the time. A lot of big tech has unlimited PTO but you're right we don't typically use 8-10 weeks. Personally I'm always using 5 weeks per year minimum
The europoors cannot conceptualize any of this. “You mean you can distinguish yourself among other professionals and earn extra privileges? How is that fair? Sounds like dangerous cowboy capitalism, Yankeeman. But thanks for the marshall plan and NATO. Jk we would never say thank you for anything.”
Because America sucks?
Of course your racist ass would only like European immigrants
I like all immigrants but I do think that it is a bit worrying when nearly all of our immigrants are from non-white countries. It changes the demographics a lot and people do have homophilly.
I mean at the current rate, this will no longer be a predominantly white country anymore. I know some of you will like that but for some people like me, it means I go from being the majority to being a minority in my own country! That’s insane. I can already see the barely hidden hatred towards white people and it is not pretty.
Lazy
They’re way too lazy, can’t handle how much you need to hustle to make it in America
More like they don’t have to hustle to live a decent life, so why would they?
I would if I had a visa. If only Uncle Sam wanted me I would be there many years ago :) Open the border to Polish citizens and you will see a deluge of hardworking people that hate socialism in the EU wasteland.
I am an european and wish I saw more of my fellow europeans. Idk why it is but suspect that life is good in europe as of now and the immigration is tough now
I know plenty of Europeans who came to US via H1-B
They immigrated here initially because they expected a better life than their home country. They are no longer dissatisfied with their home country. Dissatisfied could mean not enough economic opportunities, social issues, war, etc.

Any Indians Think Kashmir Should be Independent?
Not everyone wants to come here dude. And lots of us are just here for the money. At the end of the day, to each it's own is a good rule.
People who are here for money, do they go back? I don’t see a big stream of people leaving after age 50-60.
Children, at the end of the day, it depends on where your children make their lives.
