Brain drain part 2, almost a 100-years later. Who says history doesn’t repeat itself … that’s right cultish Republicans and an electorate that has become so self-absorbed to appreciate (and have taken for granted) the very constitutional freedoms that support their current way of life and beliefs.
Ireland has a base income tax rate of 6.25% for tech, patent royalties are tax exempt, and R&D isn't just a write-off, it's a tax credit. EU courts provide patent owners injunctive relief against thieves, and the European Patent Office is expanding its protection of AI and software inventions.
This is MAGA against Against Active Military and Veterans, then the guy stands there like he didn't do anything! He knows he's trying to provoke him to elicit a reaction! He's gonna get a reaction alright! https://youtube.com/shorts/9vSf9eaz7do?si=Pm6T9uqgu7h-wKGA
As MAGA continues to dismiss, deny, and denigrate scientists in the US, Canda and the EU have a fantastic window to court those scientists away from the US to continue research in their lands. The next big scientific breakthroughs won't be coming from the US.
So happy to know how quickly all the Americans with means and know how will abandon those who are trapped and most vulnerable to the consequences of this psychopathic regime.
Excellent! My husband is an RN in California — I’ve been wracking my brain to think of a realistic way for us to join you in Canada. I want out of this disgusting American horror story.
More than that, I fear a lot of bright Chinese and Indian students will not come to American universities and stay home to do the next gen of research and breakthroughs.
Welcome to the free and democratic 🇪🇺
All true USAmericans, whether scientists, healthcare workers, workers, or students, are welcome.
Just saying.

Very good point. When you think of all the refugees, cultural as well as science-based, who enriched the USA in the 1930s - and Agent Orange hates their kind now.
He was lays for the TV. He is a reality TV personality looking for ratings. He is not a businessman like his followers would like to believe. He was an asshole before the apprentice but the success of The Apprentice show made him that in the minds of many Americans. https://www.axios.com/2024/10/17/trump-the-apprentice-nbc-former-chief-marketer
I am telling this to my fellow Canadians, our government should be throwing money/citizenship at U.S. scientists, medical prof., anyone with the technical skills to move Canada into the next century.
We are about to invest here. I can sense it. If we want to move past current market dependancies...
We could attract back those who left from here in the first place--our own continous brain drain--and then perhaps some more beside. New and old, future Canadians.
But I see a future landscape where seeking political asylum becomes a thing in Canada again.
There is an entire island near by to me, populated by conscientious objectors to the Vietnam War, draft dodgers, to this day. They are just...still there.
They used to accelerate those people for citizenship. They used to give visas fairly easily, but that may change. I think new highly talented Canadians, formerly Americans, is what Canada still quietly prioritizes.
My brother in law from Scotland, an MD, was fast tracked. Commonwealth, but still.
Even if you're not fired by the Musk/Trump regime, the funding is frozen or soon will be. There're some privately funded institutions in the US, but I'm not sure I wanna stay in science at all. I'm not getting paid enough to be hated by half of the nation I love. Moving to industry...
Yeh, things have really flipped around since the 1930s, with Trump effectively being the American Hitler. He's even made an alliance with the Russian dictator! A fitting cartoon!
Musk shared, then deleted, a post excusing dictators.
The X post falsely claimed that Stalin, Hitler and Mao Zedong didn’t cause the deaths of millions of people under their watch.
He removed it soon after users on X criticized the post, saying it was antisemitic and dismissive of genocide.
As a teen this is really does seem like a history repeat especially since I just covered topics and implications of all the nitty gritty details of WII and holocaust.
We absolutely must Resist, Reverse, and Reclaim what was lost.

but GW Bush froze all stem cell research, our best went overseas
Trump (first term) fucked with funding, our best went overseas
now we're being invited so Science can continue
Canada & France are offering funding
that's just the start

Just in case you wanted front row seats when the US implodes.

Could happen to PhDs.
Except Nazis. We fucking hate Nazis.

Look at Syria before 2010. Look at Afghanistan in the 1970s. Look at Germany in the 1930s.

history is full of lessons. If i were a fascist, there are so many things i would learn not to do just by opening a book.
and this muppet sieg heils on stage in front of tens of millions of people anyway.
What a world.

And a big chunk of us speaks English.
Oh, and they took them as fast as they could when EU ruled that it was a reason to deny EU money.
Plus our courts found them illegal.
And our FM Sikorski knows a thing or two about relocating because of an oppressive regime.
That Musk I am
I do not like that Musk I am
