Often called the "Genius" visa, this visa allows foreign intellectuals to leave their home countries to work for American interests. Wouldn't it be better to have a nuclear scientist who studied in Iran make his living in USA instead of Tehran?

Although it can also be said that importing skilled/professionals from other countries can hurt american Job opportunities, the number isn't super-significant even at 300k to put a serious dent in the employment rate.

What can be said is that schooling in america is expensive and often not on par with the education levels in other countries, which are often also much cheaper. When this particular situation changes, we can see change in the economic climate.
