Pompeo talks truth about China at Ga Tech today
US State Department ^ | December 9, 2020 | Mike Pompeo

Posted on 12/09/2020 4:55:49 PM PST by BobNative

Look, the Chinese Communist Party knows it can never match our innovation. It has state-owned enterprises; it’s an authoritarian regime; it is a government-centric focus. That’s why it sends 400,000 students a year to the United States of America to study – 400,000 students a year studying in our universities come from one country. It is no accident.

Much of the high-end industrial base inside of China is based on stolen technology, or technology purchased from other nations. It’s not home-grown.

Beijing doesn’t want Chinese researchers to stay here in the United States. Indeed, after they’re trained, they want them to come back. They want to induce their return for the singular purpose of serving the Socialist Motherland.

In Georgia? At Tech? Did he tell those young men and women that their governor was bought and paid for by the Chinese?

Says the man whose Dept of State has total control over student visas.

He sounds almost like Paul Ryan here.

“NOW he tells us.”

He’s been saying it and more importantly acting on it his entire tenure.

Wait just a minute...SOS can not violate student visa laws on books all by himself. Student visa has no quotas by country. Any country can send as many students as they can get admitted in American Universities.

Why do you think college tuition is so high? Foreign students is a major reason. They take up space in college classrooms. Then American students are willing to pay whatever tuition is no matter how high.
