The economic argument isn't actually so simple. Yeah, if you're a developer working at a FAANG company earning top dollar maybe you come out ahead. But I had a co-op term in Seattle...one of my friends broke her arm skiing and came back from her 60k USD per year co-op job 50k in medical debt, and that's with insurance.
You can get fucked over very easily in that country. And that's even before you decide to put a dollar value on the whole "breakdown of society" thing that's going on there right now.
