OHIO? For god sake.... Michigan, Ohio, Indiana--worst recession states in the United States. Please get your facts straight.
Also, even after graduating from US universities you may either have no job...or have to WAIT for 90 days for your work permit (known as OPT not H1-B)...1 years work authorization permitted to international students cost $380...It is a big amount even for many Americans...
Anyway...NYC, San Jose, SFO, Austin, Boston, Seattle Stamford, Los Angeles..are destinations for jobs...at least for now...
Country is still fighting to restore its lost glory of 1960s. If every country start trading in their own currency dollar supremacy will decline and thus US. Its a naked truth.
The USA no longer has the American Dream which lured immigrants and other people over the years. With the present debt load where they cannot meet the interest on the debt makes one wonder when the present economic turmoil worldwide will subside and the people even in developed countries will be able to meet their monthly budget. The US dollar is not what it used to be even though most countries are still linked to it.
