Seems like the US taking all the smart people from developing nations is the real brain drain.
Not sure what part of my statement you’re confused by, I’m not against it, they’ll just go to another country if they’re not allowed to come to the US.
You used the phrase "the US taking all the smart people from developing nations," and I took you literally hoping that you didn't actually mean that, we can move on from that post.
Certainly you can see the problem from the student's perspective, trying to get credits to transfer to universities from different countries, right? Certainly, you can see the problem from the country's perspective, losing all of those researchers, economists, mathematicians, etc., right?
I mean I care about how this effects the student's, but I care more about the fact that we're going to waste the time and resources the universities have invested in these students and our country is going to lose these bright minds, for literally no reason at all. I don't even blame trump, I blame all of the fucks advising him and the people who have the ability to speak up and change his mind, but who aren't doing so. He's doing this as an election ploy and it won't net him a solitary vote.
