Is Trump going to require the same from countries where US students graduate?
Bad idea . Foreign exchange students are largely scammers that colleges look the other way since they make more money off of them. I’m guessing some of the Silicon Valley types begged Trump to allow more invaders from India to come here.
Frankly the entire student visa program needs to be overhauled
They might get two-months of green card time for
1each year studied here
for which at least $10,000 tuition was paid.
The institution should be federal student loan eligible and must receive at least half of its tuition from non-governmental sources.
The degrees should be limited at first: BSEE, MD, DDS, nursing, etc.
For each year thereafter at least $6,000 of FICA tax must be prepaid (French-style) by the person’s employer at the beginning of the calendar year to get an extended time green card.
You can assured that us taxpayers are footing part of the bill too, can’t imagine a student getting through college and whatever university isn’t getting some kind of federal grants, $35 trillion in debt before the year is out and total collapse can’t be that far away.
I’d prefer they go back and make their own countries into prosperous and vibrant trading partners such that their fellow citizens don’t feel the need to leave and come here.
NO!!! They should not have been here to begin with, they were allowed a visa to be here to go to school, with the intent and promised to go home. That’s exactly what they should do. Go home or be deported.
Terrible idea, as it rewards illegal behavior.
Enter the country illegally. Go to D state where they don’t check your papers when you enroll in a college. Graduate, and get a green card.
This sounds like a D idea, not a Trump idea. Don’t go all wobbly on us, Mr. Trump.
The only way I’d support this idea is if the foreign students take a vow of poverty and celibacy. Otherwise they will use their money to take over our country and bring in more of their own people. America is a nation not an economic zone.
I didn’t like it when Mitt Romney proposed the same thing in 2012, either.
I don’t like the idea of ANYTHING being “automatically” given to foreigners. The only thing they’re entitled to is the degree, if they earned it.
All US companies should realize that foreign STEM types generally dream of forming their own companies and becoming rich.
They have the language skills to function in their home country and their home country courts will ignore US patents to the maximum extent plausible.
Witness the textile industry in Pakistan set up by Pakistanis who emigrated to Great Britain in years past.
Witness the PC parts industry in Taiwan set up by Taiwanese who emigrated to the USA in years past.
It’s like saving 10% on labor today to lose everything in future years.
The only things that foreigners can’t steal is honesty.
Must suppress wages on the American people. Don’t matter who is president. The can make this idiocy work in their minds.
Congratulations on completing your degree. Go home now.
We’re porked.
Hell no!
When we bring in foreigners to lower wages and salaries, they increase the demand for housing, which then becomes ‘unaffordable’.
The Conservative Party of the UK is likely to get tossed into the dustbin of history because of that.
Neither party cares about you or represents you. They are grifters who destroyed the nation, $184 Trillion in debt and liabilities.
Make a plan. The GOP will certainly not save you.
Thumb’s down on this harebrained idea.
In 1981 I was told by the head HR person of what was probably the largest software development company in the DC area that he got about 30 resumes per job on offer.
That doesn’t sound very America first.
