[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This program was abused long time ago, Trump put a lid on it limiting visas in 2016. This isn’t new. I suppose we will have to see if the program is revived and revised in a more beneficial way and to create more jobs not to replace labor we have.

This will determine the cities of our stem education as kids will simply forgo these careers altogether if they don’t pay more than jobs with easier majors. Brain drain will be real and here in the US, not in the countries bleeding their workers. I worked in the field for 25 years and hate it, my kids are discouraged from it already based on my experience. [/quote]
Every industry has issues.  Parent lawyers don't want their kids to become lawyers; it's soul crushing.  Doctors are having to deal with insurance companies, and now red state policies that hamper their ability to take care of patients.

For now, the US is the best place to start businesses, so I'm not yet worried about the brain drain.

I do think that the anti-education and anti-immigrant movement of the MAGA crowd will turn off a lot of highly skilled educated foreigners from coming here. These are people who take part in research which fuels new businesses. And no, we cannot train Americans to take their place.    No amount of training can compensate for truly gifted and smart people. I think there was an increase of STEM professionals choosing to go to other countries like Canada than the US when Trump was electedi n 2016.  I know MAGA don't like to admit it, but a lot of the high tech companies were started by immigrants or children of recent immigrants.[/quote]
