Intel and Sun had several founders each. Regardless I would not mind hiring Germans (their wages and working conditions are comparable) or Hungarians. The rest of the companies you mentioned are... nobody. By the way do you know the founders of HP??? With that said, the people who start companies in the US do so for a reason. Nobody but their governments stop them from doing the same in their birth places. Why should they be loyal to that country? And if they have their loyalties mixed, why do we need them here? They can move back entirely for good. In short you have no point.
