Hitler, Stalin and Tojo were smart, too, but do we want them taking over our economy? Do we want them causing financial misery throughout the nation? Maybe not.

a friend of mine from India once told me two interesting things about the Indian economy, neither of which I am able to verify - or really all that interested in :-)
1. to 'counter' years of caste-based discrimination, lower-caste applications are preferred for hiring; this explains the large numbers of highly-educated higher-caste [Brahmin?] people leaving India
2. the government runs most of the important infrastructure, e.g. telephone service, as a bureaucratic monopoly, where bribes are a customary and expected way of doing 'business' with these organizations [my friend was amazed that he went to the phone company to get his phone service turned on, and they actually turned in on within 3 days, and no one asked/hinted for a bribe]

Good article. The more smart bright people coming to America the better. Shame on the protectionist 'close the border' 'steal our jobs' crowd.
If you need legislation to protect your job, you don't deserve your job.
