Is it really fair to other countries to take away professionals who often received a free education in their homelands? While US citizens are badgered into college plans that put them in impossible debt? And CEOs and other execs rake in reprehensible profits?

It's not sustainable. Invasive species always win out.

Is it really fair to other countries to take away professionals who often received a free education in their homelands? While US citizens are badgered into college plans that put them in impossible debt?

There is a well-known story here in town of a local engineering company where a fistfight broke out in the office when staff engineers who went into their eyeballs in debt on a Bachelors Degree were given a new H1B colleague who had gotten his Masters essentially for free in his home country.
