| Trump’s cunning plan for technology US comedy candidate Donald Trump’s surprise win has put the wind up Silicon Valley which is now starting to look seriously at his tech policies which could make their lives miserable. First up, Trump said that he will force all those US companies who are making their goods overseas to come back to the US. He specifically singled out Apple he feels it should “start building their damn computers and things in this country, instead of in other countries”. Now this could be resolved if the companies in question moved their base out of the US and became a citizen of some other country. But Trump has also promised tariffs on imported products, especially from China, as part of a plan to ensure more companies manufacture in the USA. To make life even harder for US tech, Trump will clamp down on H-1B visas, which will make it hard for US-based businesses to bring in skilled tech talent from abroad. This will mean that US companies will have to use more expensive US labour, which is not a bad thing. However tech companies say that they have a problem finding people with the skills they need. This is presumably because US universities and schools cost so much. http://www.techeye.net/business/trum...for-technology |
