Exactly. Moreover, American universities are simply a ruse for foreign students to come in and most NEVER go back. They engage in sham marriages, have a kid with their girlfriend who follows them on a visitor’s visa and then of course we all know the story.

Instead of keeping these exceptionally skilled people, we import ONE MILLION legal immigrants every year who rarely possess any skills and knowledge to be useful to our economy. Most are admitted as family relatives.
So we admit 100 times more useless people! A whole bunch of them collect government benefits. I personally know dozens of people who were approved for permanent residence as parents of US citizens, and every one of them gets social security checks without having worked a single day in USA. Are we really that stupid?
