The solution isn't a ban, it's requiring they become US citizens after they get their degree. Right now we educate them and send them right back. Meanwhile we let in 50,000+ uneducated illegal immigrants a month. It's moronic to allow top tier talent to go back to China rather than keeping them here to benefit the US

Kind of like indentured servitude, right?

They also (presumably) pay full price for their education so "we" aren't educating them, they are educating themselves.

This is equivalent to buying citizenship with money. Sounded a bit too permissive.
