.@pmarca is never one to shy away from contentious debates, and in tech, that's high-skill immigration. Here he makes the case that if you're a smart kid who grew up in rural America (like Marc), the deck has been stacked against you.

Starting in the 1970s, @pmarca believes the US chose to deindustrialize and prioritize knowledge work. It benefited the coasts, but devastated rural America. Now he thinks AI + robotics could spark an industrial renaissance that benefits the entire country.

Robotics will be the biggest industry ever created. Protectionist policies create industrial power. High-skilled immigration is crushing smart rural kids. Just a few of @pmarca's bold takes w/ @JTLonsdale at the first Reagan Economic Forum. Special episode out now.
