Richer country, better quality of life, more personal freedoms. Not bizarre assumption at all.


> Richer country

Trust me most students in US nowadays are family financial support. They are already rich. And the US do not often give enough working position for them (outside of tech, which h1b is not particularly friendly)

> better quality of life

This definitely is wrong. Those kids enjoyed a far better life in China than US.

> more personal freedoms.

Well, for what they want to do, they'll have more freedom...


If China is such a paradise for the children of the Chinese elite, why do they overwhelmingly go to US universities? Why bother ever leaving China at all?


Education gilded one?


> This definitely is wrong. Those kids enjoyed a far better life in China than US.

they can stay there then lol


Then maybe we don't let them study here if they don't need it and we don't want them?
