I guess it is not good for India.

Actually, I don't see how it's not good for India. Odds are this man was educated at Indian universities funded by Indian taxpayers. How does it help India to have him in the US working at a job and paying taxes here? I don't understand why nations like India and Mexico aren't joining forces with the US to try to get their own people back home and working there. Foreign remittances are not a substitute for workers helping to grow an economy.

Excellent point. Hope the President or some of his staffers see this.

Although President Trump is a pretty intelligent man; he may be working on this as we speak.

btw, so tired of calling customer service for my computer and getting someone, obviously from India, who I cannot understand.

You don't realize how logical your statement is. Many years ago, before Zimbabwe was still the breadbasket of southern Africa rather than its basket case, I was invited to a reception for new students where I struck up a conversation with a young man from Zimbabwe. This was probably because we were both shy and found ourselves sharing a back corner.

He told me that the country, while newly independent and still poor would send some of their best high school students to colleges abroad which seemed the best value for the money mainly to study engineering and agriculture. They depended on those graduates to come home and share what they had learned, usually as teachers or field agents.

Unfortunately, many chose to shirk that obligation and remain in the country where they had received their university education because even an average salary in North America or Europe provided a much better life than that of a trained professional in their home country.

This was back in the late 1970s before the H-1B visa racket grew into what it has become today. Their home countries, which had provided them the college education, had little recourse except to arrest them until the cost of their education was repaid if they ever returned home. You can guess how many of them did.
