Europe to burned American scientists: We'll take you in (2025)

This is great but I am skeptical that there is the kind of resource and compensation behind it that would be required to make this a real thing.

As research is being defunded [1], scientists affected have nowhere to go, so you can pick them up at a discount.

The cost to do this is trivial why don't all countries open their arms and wallets for academic talent from USA?

I put it to you because all around the world countries no longer value academic research.

This is from a year ago. Would be interesting to see the results of this campaign.

Some more discussion at the time:

Europeans use US tech with backdoors, they do their research for free.

Don't know about other professions, but typical pay for software engineers in Europe only like $60K a year, perhaps some European software engineers working for European corporations can chime in.

Great, as if Europe hasn’t been wrecked by American Social Sciences already.

Furthermore at current projections, the speed at which MAGA is imploding, those who still make the migration won’t be the ones fleeing „persecution“ but rather „market forces“
