The Trump brain drain continues!

While President Donald Trump makes it harder to hire skilled foreign workers in the US, Chinese leader Xi Jinping is trying to lure them in. On Wednesday, China officially launched a new visa program designed to make it easier for young professionals and people with degrees in science and technology from top universities to study and do business in the country. While many of the details of the K visa program have yet to be announced, Chinese authorities have said that applicants won’t be required to obtain an invitation letter from a specific company, meaning the visa isn’t tied to individual employers. That could give foreigners the flexibility to, say, join an early stage startup in Shanghai or explore different opportunities in a buzzy tech hub like Hangzhou. Trump's hostility to foreign talent and all forms of real science is resulting in a brain drain that the U.S. will suffer from for generations.
