Our view is that the decisions of the current White House are so damaging and nonsensical, on so many fronts and for so many categories of activity (not just science), that this is temporary, and must be endured if possible. Future administrations, be they conservative or progressive, will probably return to a more rational approach. Perhaps there won't be the generous funding that existed before, and that's fine. But I am confident that in a few years, things will be better than they are today.
And don't kid yourself about the attraction that other wealthy nations can create regarding science education, research and development. We come from those countries, we know. Salaries are much lower than American ones, and the level of funding is low compared to what it was until recently in the US. If you're in an American lab that hasn't been defunded, sit tight. If your funds have been cut and you can't find other sources of funding here to continue your work, yes, you need to move elsewhere. Or change field (which is heartbreaking, if this was your life's work).
IDNGAF that you are sad. Go elsewhere, there will be
more opportunities for American kids. US universities should not be admitting or employing foreign students at all.
What more opportunities? It's always been there for Americans. There is/was a shortage of people. Do "American" kids want them? certainly not in large droves at an average American high school.
There is no shortage of people. There is only a shortage of people willing to work for the low salaries companies want to pay. That's why the big push for foreign students and H1Bs. Get rid of them all and there will be higher paying jobs for American kids.
No how can you be this stupid?
Project 2025 says the exact opposite, but you didn't read it did you!
Americans are going to lose all benefits from work that is in Project 2025.
Americans are going to lose all injury protections from work that is in Project 2025.
Americans are going to not be able to afford college and their kids will work for pennies ie in Project 2025.
What is wrong with you people? You learned to read in third grade for god's sake yet you didn't read the most important parts of Trump's plan utterly stupid MAGA.
They wrote it all down.
