I'm all for visa reform and stuff but some of these quotes are cringe-worthy.

  By as close as 2016, he claims the company will 
  grow in revenue to $1billion and employ over 
  4,000 people. "These jobs could have belonged 
  to the US," says Wadhwa.

Another:

  You don't tell mummy and daddy that you're back 
  because America didn't want you.

The second quote is quite relevant, coming back to India can easily mark you as someone who didn't make it which carries a lot of stigma.

I think the 'mummy and daddy' bit was his attempt at humor.
