I think a nation should have the right to attract the best and the brightest to their country. I know Canada does this, and so should the United States. I think every graduate student in Science field should get a green card, or at least a year or two period to find a job, before their student visa expires. I know this does not comport with what is written on the statue of liberty, but whatever.
As for brain drain, those who succeed in America are able to pump in more money into their home countries economy than they would be if they had to work back in their home country. My parents could be considered as cases of "brain drain", but they are able to pump in thousand of dollars into the Indian economy without any trouble due to the success they have had here in America. America also gains due to the tons of taxes they need to pay, and India benefits because they are able to get money through remittances and investments.
