I am not talking about a lowly IT project. I am talking about discovery and innovation brought about by high quality Scientists and Engineers.

The low totem poll guys are not the types who come up with great discoveries and innovation.

It's important to have top notch scientists and engineers...it's what drives discovery and innovation, which contributes to a countries economy.
Hey nothing wrong with importing. I'll probably import my wife...might as well import a scientist too.

The best thing is, she'll be a legal immigrant and maybe a scientist too!

Nope there is nothing at all wrong with importing talent from abroad.

Well hopefully you will be stimulating enough for her if she is a scientist. I know my mind needs a smart guy to keep my science mind interested.

That's why I chose the man I did.
