Sorry, this is insane. The Asian families here won't even be bothered with them. Why are these students being brought here to take American jobs and why are Americans to help them out in the process?
There are plenty of kids already here in foster care who desperately need the mentoring and help of a good family. Why are children from other countries being brought here to undermine the help they so desperately need? You go tell them, you aren't good in Math and Science, therefore you don't matter. You are politically not fashionable...
The biggest mistake of Mia Farrow's life was bringing Soon Yi into her home. A kind-hearted, tragically hip, white liberal woman.
All they do once here is steal your jobs, steal the men and stick to their own culture, people aznd way of life. Their countries have become intolerable to live in because of too many selfish, cold-blooded tyrants just like them.

Not that I want to seem paranoid, but you do wonder how many of these students are actually "government sponsored" for "future use".

They may take some of our jobs but it also keeps the stray animal population under control.
There's a trade off for everything.

They're going to school, not working.

They are in the Chinese government's program for kids who don't already have relatives or other relationships here.

Some will learn science and engineering and go back to China where they will improve Chinese military technology, others will become naturalized US citizens, go to work for defense contractors or civil service, and will be recruited by Chinese Intelligence to leak proprietary and sensitive information.
