A sign of the times! America has always opened its doors to the poor and disadvantaged of the world. These wealthy and highly educated emmigrants were trained in our nation's premiere research colleges and universities, and now can go back to their nations to improve the standard of living we Americans have taken for granted. I am very glad. I have both Indian and Chinese piano students, and they are my finest, practicing diligently and taking the instrument seriously, more so than my other students, who allow sports, TV and video games to shape their world view!

America will cease to be great, if we lose our strong work ethic, and our schools become "dumbed down" as they are now, in throwing out the WASL and other tests for being "too hard". We will lose our once high standard of living, too, if we become lazy, and allow the government to take care of us from cradle to grave, taxes of every type to rise to pay for that expensive and controlling government, and our schools become mediocre academically.

We will only have ourselves to blame for our nation's demise. And, we can admire India and China who will soon displace our economy as the world's largest!!

have you ever thought about moving to india or china?see ya..

THIS IS EXACTLY the example of the naive and ignorant American that this country is having problem of. Being arrogant and offensive towards negative comments being made instead of stepping back to think and reflect back to own self, to read more and to find out how one can do positive change and to learn from past mistakes. The reason the first responder writes his/her comment is only because he love his country very much, not because he wants to relocate. Can't you even get that?

poor people....

This is not new news. This has been common knowledge for 7 or 8 years within the higher education community.

It's very simple really. America is no longer the land of greatest opportunity. It hasn't been since 9/11. Doors virtually closed to the best and the brightest, and our openness to that segment used to be our competitive edge (getting visas post 9/11 is a joke).

Investment in war instead of in science, education, healthcare, etc.

It's a classic death spiral. Go read Paul Kennedy's "Rise and Fall of the Great Powers" to see where we are headed.

In this respect, Osama won and W caused us to be the big loser.

Not a problem. We have too many people!!

Yeah, I'm going back to Germany too. The job prospect are much better. After all, we make Mercedes-Benz. The world's finest cars.

Let's move to India and China and take THEIR JOBS! Any Americans want to join me? I'm unemployed too.

Yay! Go home! Bon voyage! Woo hoo!

Yepee! Good riddance. It's about time they leave. I just hope them illegal Mexicans would go home too!

It is about time! Now we can get the Engineering field paying more than $3500 a YEAR! Cheap foreign labor has destroyed all levels of work. We need to make the US like all other countries. NO foreign labor. PERIOD. No students, no H1b, visit then leave.

I wish I could have attended a premiere US college but I was bumped by wealthy Chinese students of Communist Party families who had expensive tutors their entire childhoods.
