Brand America has often been marketed as "Land of Opportunities", drawing more than half a million students from Foreign Lands each year, with record breaking 820,000 students in year 2011 - 2012, reported by american non profit organization Institute of International Education.

This growth has been unprecedented, especially when cost of attending American College is on the rise. CNN Money reports, cost of attending college has risen five hundred percent since 1985. Has this astonishing growth fueled by Foreign Students?

This question continues fueling my rage against American Education system, especially Johns Hopkins University, School of Medicine, that I started attending in August of the year 2010. This was the same year when the Occupy Wall Street movement, started feeding me with Bolus of Information. High on Life that I already was, just got accentuated smoking up the rolled up Occupy joint, such that when upon attempting to speak U.S. English my proud Indian accent highlighted underlying passion.

When one is surrounded by Indians, Chinese, Taiwanese, Filipinos, Nigerians students on the campus, one definitely starts wondering is there any relationship between technological advancements such as Twitter, Facebook, and social movements such as Arab Spring, India Against Corruption, Bharat Swabiman Andolan, Occupy Wall Street. For an Indian doctor who has witnessed relatives friends who were living the Brand "American Dream", going wild after 2008, when Americas Real Estate Bubble busted, waking up average Americans and the world from their sleep. Just to be put back to sleep with intravenous infusion of sedatives laden Funny Money, which is backed by nothing other than the Trust in the Uncle Sams Banks and their Monopoly of Printing Papers.

Does one need Brains to understand, if a Trusting community chooses to Print their own Papers, could start weaning themselves from drowsiness brought about by, Games of Thrones.




Is the brain drain a form of modern day slavery, or brain washing that continues to happen in Hollywood style Branding "American Dream"??
