This will end what is essentially legal human trafficking by medium and large corporations.

Which is clearly a good thing, but I fear it signals deteriorating relationships with other countries.

Do other countries really want the US taking their top talent? I am not sure this is bad for foreign relations.

Legal human trafficking was good for capitalism (not for the trafficked or for US workers). Good for the capitalists' economy.

This just made it a little bit harder for american capitalists. No doubt there are nationalist concerns but also national security concerns behind this decision.
