A lot of our brilliant immigrants came to the US under duress, fleeing the Nazis, Communism, or economic stagnation. If places like Russia, China, and India are now economically vibrant and politically stable, and thus retain their citizens rather than cast them off, that is really a good thing overall. As for the US, immigrants or not, this is still a land of opportunity if you are <a href="http://bluecountyredstate.blogspot.com/2008/11/ultimate-household-income-regression.html" rel="nofollow">willing to work and get educated.</a> To a large extent, this is understandable, and really a good thing.

Back in '05 many people were angry about undocumented immigrants, and wanted to build a physical wall betwen the USA and Mexico. Now the immigrants that America really needs are heading home to seek better oportunities - an amazing papadigm shift. I wonder what will happen if Obama lives up to expectations, will real change make the US a magnet for talent for a while longer?
