The headline is further misleading by saying "foreign citizens" when the study was talking about workers who were "foreign born." A U.S. citizen who was born abroad is not foreign.

>A U.S. citizen who was born abroad is not foreign This is a relatively tiny demographic. About 50,000 US babies per year are born abroad. Compared to over 4 million native births per year. So about ~1.2%.

    Yep. People like Sergey Brin, Max Levchin, et al. would count as "foreign" under the metric of the study in the article.
