Recession in 2017 after Briexit?

I am a retired engineer with close connection to the high tech industries. In my entire career, I had never encountered a single illegal immigrant in IT. All the Indians, Chinese, and Russians I met were either American citizens born in the US or legal foreign workers on H1B visas. What I would like to see is that more native Americans will enter the IT and high tech sectors. They are the first immigrants. All of us came after them.

As for the Brits, consider these two facts. 1) They had invaded and conquered 80% of the world before the end of the 19th century. Remember the empire on which the sun never sets? And now they have descended into a clan of immigrant phobic islanders (to be fair, only 52% of them). 2) The USA is a nation of insurgents of immigrant descent who revolted against their British overlords.
it just go to prove that that socialism and the nanny states destroys individual character and nations.
 
...and the media acts like the UK will simply sit around like little babies with flies buzzing around their heads until the EU arrives to feed them. Is it just the media, or do a staggering amount of people believe this to be true? Watching coverage one would swear the UK has never stood on it's own and never can again without the EU.
 
I doubt Brexit will have so long term circumstances. Looks more like a summer blockbuster :D
Yeah same here. I think its all rumors and speculations, big boys are ready to manage this event and I think had enough time to prepare for it.
 
That's very unfortunate. For decades, there's been this myth about a lack of American IT workers, hence the justification for the H1 visa program. What many Americans don't know is that there is a sure path from H1 to US citizenship. It's all about saving $$$. The British have also imported tons of cheap tech labor from India so it's not just us.
I would ask you and syswizard, if you're software developers, do you have a hard time getting a job in the U.S.? Can you hire a highly qualified software developer quickly and easily? If all these evil foreigners are "taking" our software developer jobs, then it would be hard for a "real" 'murican software developer to get a job and easy to find a developer to hire. That is decidedly not the case. I hire developers in several parts of the U.S. and find it almost impossible to find them, and when I do I pay a significantly higher salary than I'd pay to other types of engineers with the same education from the same schools. All the developers I know have a number of job offers essentially always on tap should they decide to move on from their current job. This is not indicative of a situation where 'murican jobs are getting stolen. It is a situation where the economy is being harmed because I, and thousands of other businesses like mine, can't expand our businesses at the rate we'd otherwise be able to due to a shortage of skilled labor in this one particular field.
I hate outsourcing, when I've been forced to do it I've gotten subpar results and had to devote far more management overhead to it than with my own team. I do it only because I'm forced to. So no, it's not a myth that there are a lack of highly qualified software developers with U.S. passports. Perhaps if you expand the definition of "IT" to the help-desk flunkie who tells you to check if your computer is plugged in or the big company IT nanny whose main skillset is coming up with ridiculous password policies, then no, we don't have an "IT worker" shortage. We're not bringing those people in on H1 visas, we're bringing in software developers, of which there is most certainly a chronic shortage that has been around for years and isn't going anywhere soon.
