You know what? I don't care if they leave. Because the same thing has happened over and over again throughout the history of this nation.

People emigrate here, stay for a while, then leave to go back home. And they do so for various reasons. Not everyone who has stepped on these shores stays.

So what!

And as for these very bright, smart entrepreneurs from south Asia, both India and China have more than a billion people each. Statistically that means the top 10 percent of each would equal 100 million individuals! They out breed us and have dreadful environmental conditions in both nations.

And they're socialistic countries which concentrate their best educational opportunities on the "cream", those among the 100 million who are super intelligent and capable.

I say good luck to them, I hope they can correct the problems that exist in Pakistan, China and India.

As for here, Americans have been quite successful without having to worship at the altar of Mensa. If we keep offering average people the opportunity to succeed and work at what they love, America will always be strong and competitive.

"Economists say the exodus could hurt the U.S. economy because America is losing some of the world's smartest and most entrepreneurial people."

Somehow I doubt that. The "smartest and most entrepreneurial poeple" wouldn't have a hard time making it here.

Hypothetically, we are now adding a new state the size of California (30+ million) every census.

Mostly as a result of legal and illegal immigration.

This is the highest population growth in the history of the USA! Over 32,712,033 between 1990 and 2000!

Think about that.

This means for instance, that California must build a new school and a new jail every day!

Hussain, chief executive of Denver software firm Cressoft, plans to open a facility in Pakistan to provide faster, less expensive software development for U.S. companies.

Yes, they are leaving and taking all our jobs with them.
