Congress is giving a lot away this year, although I didn’t get any. It seems I just have less on April 15.

Things are definitely out of control. Cap foreign student admissions we pay for. We are chumps.

Seen on the web; The World-”USA hurry up and solve the world’s financial crisis so we can go back to hating you.”

Recommended for discussion but the problem is that these policies are supported by the technology industry itself, who want to manufacture overseas in a global marketplace. They know that America has the best technical education system in the world, and that a large number of these people will return to their home countries, where they will grow the skilled engineering and technical base there.

Eventually the companies themselves will move their headquarters abroad.

The worldwide specialization of labor and free markets should increase the income for everyone, but countries going into a global marketplace need to make sure their specialties are going to be valuable ones. America needs to reinvigorate its manufacturing sector and start making things here that get shipped overseas. Software is going overseas. Computing will go overseas. Big Pharma will go. Banking and the world’s capital markets will go (they’re already leaving thanks to Sarbanes-Oxley and high corporate taxes). Electronics are already gone. We don’t do oil or coal or nuclear here. What are we going to do? Hollywood, theme parks, and the world’s best military aren’t going to save us alone.

Study at Redstate University

You want to go into engineering? Nice Mr Obama is going to pay for your education. Ooops. MIT doesn’t have any room, you see, 30% are foreigners. Diversity you see. OUR tax money is paying their way, but we value diversity more than we value our own citizens.

High skilled jobs can leave the country. The few low skilled jobs that are left are for the illegal immigrants. It’s assumed you won’t do those jobs so you won’t be given you the opportunity anyway.

Maybe you can go to a community college and get a degree in “queer theory” or “Womyn’s Studies” instead.

If gets you blood pressure up. Be careful. You will be standing in line behind illegal immigrants for health care as well.

You don’t have to be a Republican for this to really anger you.

A lot of departments (math, engineering, IS, statistics, etc.) at a lot of Universities would close their doors due to insufficient student enrolment if it were not for foreign students.
