That's far from true, at least for doctoral programs in the biomedical sciences. Most of those PhD students don't pay tuition and get an annual stipend of $20-25,000 for living expenses. WE are covering those costs, basically paying them to come here and get degrees. It's sick.

This is a misconception. Most foreign students receive stipends just like domestic students and fees are often waived.
