- jazzyk 12y agoAll I am saying is that importing a small number of really bright, highly educated MS and PhDs _is_ beneficial to _everybody_ in the US(creates jobs, etc). Yes, it is brain drain. I am not sure why the US needs to provide work places for Chinese and Indian citizens? There are many US citizens who need a job these days. I don;t think I am being insensitive - most countries are very protective of their job markets. Try to get a work permit in France or Europe if you are not from a EU country.
- grinnbearit 12y agoI understand your morals could be different from mine but heres how I see it. A Chinese or Indian citizen is an individual, like any other, just like you even. Through no fault of their own they've been born in a country that doesn't provide the same quality of life for them and their family that an American/EU resident enjoys. Don't they have the right to the pursuit of happiness just like you? For an extreme example, would you rather be a Chinese Foxconn employee or an unemployed American.
