    “The fraction of the people that were asked”. Who was asked? Also, how do you ask people that have already emigrated to another country and don’t plan to come back? Questionable methods. I’m only interested in the hard facts.

    You can turn and twist it as much as you want. Fact is, there is a netto exodus of academics for economic reasons. And this has been going on for a while and not just yesterday.

      Where do they go? Do you have any hard facts?

        USA, Switzerland and Austria accounts for the majority of target countries. Around 60% if I remember correctly, correct me on that number if I’m wrong. Might be more than that. Emigration for economic reasons checks out though.

          … if I remember correctly, correct me on that number if I’m wrong.

          First, you post sources that contradict your own claims, and now you ‘remember’ numbers. I already corrected you, in part by using your own sources.

          Such a debate is waste of time, bro. I end this discussion.
