[quote]what do I care what happens to the country they came from?[/quote] The tl;dr of America [quote]Or maybe their country of origin created the brain drain by failing to implement effective policies that would motivate their citizens to stay there.[/quote] Right because that is the only thing that motivates people to leave. I guess the whole continent of Africa should just leave home. [quote]Andre is right but he isn't thinking big enough! Forget brain drains across borders, people should be embargoed from leaving their home towns. I mean it just creates a brain drain! No one should move ever, or at least not without their Lords permission.[/quote] Tell you what, how about free immigration but then no country has to pay for any foreign aid? Sound fair?
