> oh and the countries we see fit to spy on already have fairly severe employment restrictions such that it’s not easy for an American to get a job in one of their companies
I'm not sure who you think America spies on, but the real list is much bigger than you probably think, and includes countries considered American allies (for instance, the UK and Germany.)
I guess I’m not sure how that is relative. Israel also spies on the US. My point is the asymmetry here in job opportunities between countries who are our, at least ostensible, geopolitical adversaries.
