I believe I am quite awake... and therefore find it highly unlikely that a Western company would discriminate you for your race and prefer to move jobs to Asia because they prefer the looks of the people there more.

I agree, I do have a strong view on the topic: I do not like many aspects of the globalization we are in, but I am not naive enough to believe a country like Switzerland can stop it: There is a deadly combination of two seperate developments going on:
- Jobs tend to move more and more to countries with lower salary levels.
- People tend to try more and more to move to the countries where the salary level is high.
The combination of both will make it increasingly difficult to compete as an employee in the job market. My dad worked his entire life for two companies: one before college and one afterwards. I am in my early 30s and I am at my third employer. And not because I wanted to change...

So yes, I fully agree that the development is not really good from an European/Swiss perspective. Many here lose a piece of the wealth we had in the last generation and many Chinese win a piece. But will quotas on permits work? No, because the companies are not at all "national" anymore. Especially not here in Switzerland. The largest employers here in Zurich have plenty of offices around the world. So they do have very little barriers to build up the next IT team wherever it makes sense... aka costs less. Switzerland is one of the most expensive places and in order to stay competitive here, it does take some effort.

So what is my solution?
- Do not blame the "cheap" immigrants. They are not coming here to be cheap, they come here to get a good salary. They do not dump salaries, employers try to cheat them. That makes a big difference to me and if you look at the statistical data, you will see that immigrants get very close to local salaries within very few years in Switzerland. In short: As soon as somebody recognizes he gets cheated, he changes his job.
- For your kids: Get them an as high educaton as possible. No matter what the world will be like, it is a global fact that education pays off. Statistically proven in pretty much any country around the world.

I simply do not blame anyone for those developments. They are logical and will happen, no matter what some governments will do. So I am trying for myself to adapt to the world I am in instead of blaming politicians or the globalization. Blaming immigrants is a very slippery slope that is factually simply wrong. And I believe your expectations to get job offers just because some people do not get a permit is just as wrong, sorry.
