Skilled immigrants leaving the U.S. Why skilled immigrants are leaving the U.S. Is a summarization of Vivek Wadhwa's research. Presented in BusinessWeek. I read through the article and found it to be, at best, naive. To me, it doesnt tell something that we dont know. Given the fact that it is a research work, I expected more than what is served. As well. How time changes everything! The Sun, with all ...

Things that I find interesting, thought-provoking or simply informative to share. Monday, March 2, 2009. Warren Buffett - words of wisdom.
