Yeah, if only they came to the USA, received an incredible education, and then went back to where they came from and helped that country find or administer treatments for basic diseases that kill people in other countries.
- arcticbull 10y agoreceived one of the most expensive educations in the world that effectively requires working in a first-world country to pay off after.
- jessaustin 10y agoThat's something to consider before matriculation. It's just as much a problem for Americans as it is for foreigners, so sympathy might be hard to find...
- arcticbull 10y agoThe difference of course is that if you come to a US university expecting to make US wages afterwards, that's one thing. If you suddenly get sent back to a third-world country, that's a totally different thing. The problem is America has effectively been selling these people a false bill of goods.
- jessaustin 10y agoHas "America" been selling anything? Other than a few private schools like Boston University who view "international" students as their meal tickets, everyone here is largely indifferent to their presence. Meanwhile there are e.g. Chinese government programs to maximize Chinese study in USA.
