A lot of our money is wasted.

And they're NOT studying gender or global warming.

It’s a lot easier for a unified people that doesn’t have to waste intellectual time and energy on becoming more diverse. In China half of their education system isn’t geared towards feel good degrees.

But many of the best Chines researchers are in the U.S. It is like when the U.S. Math team beat the Chinese Math Team; and the U.S. tea, was 100% Chinese-American

Do you know that when I was in grad school, 50% of the grad students were from China, getting paid off of U.S. Federal grants. So basically, we were paying them to get educated...then they move back there.

Its a scam, just as bad as a US citizen that goes to CA college from out of state pays out of state rate, but an illegal that shouldn't even be in the country pays instate rate.

We give money away to study fucking monkeys and gender bullshit. No amount of money can turn idiocy research useful.

Might as well not spend it and be better off financially.
