Re: Permit reduction is a good thing

This discussion on companies on and off shoring is very interesting; but would like bring this thread back to centre.

The reduction of permits for parties not already in Switzerland is a good thing; dont take it personally, but societies and governments need to act in the interests of the people making up the society they are belong too.

If we let the world be run by corporations then we all be up s**t creek; since the great majority have absolutely no long term interests in anything beyond making as much money as possible for the tiny minority by exploiting the majority.
I am sorry you are having difficulties finding a job. But having read several threads now about the glut of technology workers, the severe downward pressure on IT jobs, and the effects of outsourcing/offshoring, it seems that you are blaming too many permits on your inability to find employment.

There are procedures for granting a permit, and one is that the job was advertised locally, and there is no one in the local talent pool. I also understand that the Suisse authorities are looking very closely at an applicant company's compliance with the rules.

Again, I am sorry for your personal circumstance, but it sounds like you are railing against permits, when that isn't the issue - it's a seismic change in the way IT is delivered.
