Here’s the dirty little secret: when foreign companies move in, they don’t hire Georgians, they import foreign labor.
We’re being replaced in our own communities.
That’s not job creation. That’s a sellout.
We need leaders who are willing to put Georgians FIRST!

In that scenario, all you need to do is to obtain a payroll ID, set up payroll, and then comply with all applicable labor and employment laws, thereby avoiding the hassle of setting up a corporate presence before you can lawfully bring an employee on board. |

🤖 Conclusion [20/100]: The statement generally claims that foreign companies moving into Georgia do not hire locals ("Georgians"), import their own labor, and thus produce no net job gain for the local population, further intensifying feelings of community displacement or 'replacement.' The sources provided and broader labor market data indicate these claims are mostly inaccurate or based in conspiracy theory. Multiple references confirm that U.S. anti-discrimination laws apply to foreign companies operating in the U.S., including Georgia, and that workers hired here are usually local hires. There is little evidence that the majority of foreign companies eschew hiring locals outright or that they primarily import foreign labor for local facilities. The 'replacement' rhetoric, as noted in two sources, is closely tied to the debunked Great Replacement conspiracy theory, rooted in far-right and xenophobic ideology, with no credible statistical backing that such population or labor 'replacement' is occurring due to foreign investment. The claim about these dynamics not equating to 'job creation' is marked inconclusive, as it's an opinion and wasn't addressed directly in the references. Overall, the statement is mostly false, but because a small proportion of foreign companies could, in rare niche cases, bring in temporary foreign workers, the score is not 0, but very low.
