You are absolutely right Jim. China sends people here specifically because they think it will benefit China - NOT because they want to broaden the cultural exposure and experiences of their citizens. There should be an absolute limit on the amount of STEM and biomedical research funding coming from US taxpayers that can be spent on foreign students/post-docs/doctorates. We should be promoting our own citizens first, at all times.
So, what do you suggest we do to the huge percentage of Chinese students ( which includes Taiwanese and Hongkong students ) who are enrolled in our STEM schools and doing research at our best research labs?
Do we expel and fire them all?
