Every time you try and counter that argument, one of them points out to you that the guy on the H1B visa working in the cube next to him got his Masters Degree for free in his home country.

Your response is simply this ...

The guy in the next cube did not get a degree in Theatre dumazse.

The grades he had to earn to get into that program (and the academic rigor involved in earning those grades) probably would have earned a U.S. student enough scholarships to get a full ride here.

I counter with: perhaps you should move to his home country and take advantage of "free college"

“one of them points out to you that the guy on the H1B visa working in the cube next to him got his Masters Degree for free in his home country.”

Except in his home country their college in NOTHING compared to ours. They basically get the degree with no effort.

Master’s degrees in electrical engineering are not accepted from other countries in the semiconductor industry. I don’t know what industry you’re talking about.

And what is the acceptance rate in his country? In other countries, if you do not have what it takes to achieve (IQ plus evidence of studying hard) you do not get in.

Really? From what I had and have seen huge numbers of seats in Graduate Level classes are occupied by Student Visa Holders who then go on to get H-1B Visas, Green Cards, etc.

[Zman516]

And why isn’t THAT guy living/working in his home country? Maybe because his home country is a sh!thole and he would be having the bejeezus taxed out of him if he was there.

[redgolum]

Actually, he got it for free, here.

And that is the argument that makes the most sense.

[Hulka]

Yes, but what thew idiot doesn’t understand is the same government that “paid” for his education decides WHO gets to go to college.

[Little Ray]

And then came here so he wouldn’t have pay the taxes for the next guy getting his Masters on the taxpayer’s dime.

NOTHING THAT SOMEONE ELSE HAS TO PAY FOR IS A RIGHT.

You mean the dirt poor home country that they fled from because of the crippling poverty there?

[CommieCutter]

I always counter it with: It’s only free when the faculty doesn’t draw a pay check.
