Moreover, unemployment rates are not the sole job market indicator. Underemployment is far more prevalent than unemployment. And it is a better indicator of just how unnecessary foreign students are.
More than three-fifths of foreign-born PhDs in physics accepted "postdoc" positions in recent years, compared to less than half of citizens. To an outsider, "postdoc" might sound like an exalted rung of academe. It is not. To most young PhDs it is a holding position, a temporary research gig one does until a real job comes along. Only 27% of new foreign physics PhDs find real "potentially permanent" positions.
But to the university, postdocs provide an almost limitless supply of low wage workers. The huge influx of foreign students reduces academic payrolls by billions of dollars annually-transferring wealth from workers to Big Education management.
All this, and immigrant impacted income depression too: American STEM salaries are surprisingly low-also in part because of immigration, one reason Johnny, quite rationally, won't do STEM.
No wonder Big Business and Big Ed like immigration.
And that flies smack in the face of every EDC troll pushing their campus indoctrinated propaganda... like you. Give my best to your Nerd fellating friend.
I have little time, nor patience for your kind.
