This is an excellent, short, highly readable, very important book. Every business executive and politician should have a copy.https://www.amazon.com/Gift-Global-Talent-Migration-Business/dp/1503605027 …

Visit any University and I guarantee that at least 1/3 of the faculty came to America as international grad students and then stayed. Our Universities dominate world rankings in large part due to our ability to attract the best and the brightest from around the world.

I’m an IM resident. Literally *all* of my faculty are foreign, mostly from South Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Our class is filled with 1st and 2nd gen immigrants as well.

The legal immigration system for skilled workers is broken and no steps are being taken to fix it. Trump is making it worse and Dems only care about illegal immigration

It took me 13 years from coming into this country as a master's student on F1 to becoming a citizen in 2017 and I was more dilligent than most of my friends in similar positions to follow through on my visa and green card steps. That is pretty ridiculous

A small plausible step would be to grant H1B the same prerogatives as L1B (intercompany transfer). This is one of the most ridiculous provisions in the immigration code: - Not subject to lottery allocation. - Allows spouse to work.

I would say that was true even of comparatively low-skilled immigrants. Every single year of schooling they've received before immigrating was paid for by another country.

A small correction: let not America's enemies steal it away from us through the political sabotage of certain puppet presidents -- to an otherwise GREAT thread.

Immigrants period. The notion that nations should use anything but screens for violence and crime is abhorrent and defies reason in terms of probabilities of immigrants and their offspring being net contributors to the wealth and culture of the nation.

I'm pro-closed borders 99% of the time, but in some cases, (high skilled high IQ) immigration has net benefits. Venezuela under Marcos Perez Jimenez mass imported Europeans to fund public works projects among other things since the country's population/size ratio was uneven.
