Fact: Every counterintelligence briefing I got for the last 10 years identified China and others as the number #1 risk for theft of research and development.

The American idea brings the world's best and brightest to these shores always has and always will.

We are all immigrants.

LOL - look at the authors and contributors! So, you know that they are all citizens?.... or maybe other country's brightest?? I'm simply stating a fact Phil - our public education system doesn't emphasize the sciences enough. It's not a criticism of immigrants - it's a criticism of us. Saying the truth isn't politically correct these days, but let's face it - our young people are generally less well educated than prior generations. primary education in inner cities in particular is a national disgrace. Platitudes may make some feel better, but when you see how many Chinese students we have allowed into our research institutions - you have to wonder if those counterintelligence briefings had any effect. Our research $$ fund a pipeline of innovation directly to China.
