Free trade in brains would solve most of our immediate problems. A cap of 140,000 people with brains per year entering the US does more harm than all of our other policies combined. If we had free trade in brains, smart people would come here and we could get on with building a prosperous country populated by the smartest, best motivated people in the world. BTW -- they would make lots of money, save lots of money, spend lots of money, and yes, buy houses with lots of money. IN a global economy, the only long term hedge against poverty is to have the smartest people adding the most value and working in the most productive manner. Right now we fear those people and look for ways to tell them they are not welcome. We are cutting ourselves off from the source of our own prosperity.
