Or maybe the US should actually look at its own citizens for once. It seems every time the US has a problem, they try to solve it by importing people.

That's not a quick fix though, you have to start with people who are five years old right now then see the benefits in twenty or more years.

There are huge amounts of fellowships and scholarships available for US citizens to go into grad school. If they don't want to go in whose fault is that. Admittedly, most of them come out with huge debt from undergrad, so I understand the decision to get jobs immediately.
