Every engineer educated and trained here produces much more than
that.

That's the same old often repeated hogwash that exists only in a
vacuum. Non-democracies don't give a damn about innovation, all they
want is access to our markets. Access to our consumers so they can
rake in the money, and access to our jobs so they can send the money
home. If our leaders of democracies band together and trade amongst
ourselves, other countries will follow our lead or eat dirt. In a
time not so long ago, we proved that already. Now too many of our
leaders are grasping at the New World Order, they are power-hungry
and have forgotten about leading by example.

Thanks in part to giving high-tech jobs to H-1B visa holders instead
of educating and hiring our own or at least others from civilized
democratic countries.
