New Zealand is losing more skilled and educated people than we’re gaining in the ‘brain drain’

哈哈哈，你仔细看了你自己发的这个链接的文章了吗？
可能你的观点是宇宙正确，但我还没见过直接拿反面的论据来论证自己观点的。你这么爱 myth，确定你要去学science?
这就是你的连接的文章具体：
The 'brain drain' is the idea that New Zealand is losing its best and brightest workers to other countries. It’s commonly thought that much of our talent ends up in Australia, which is our most popular destination for permanent and long-term (PLT) migration. Over the past 15 years, more people have moved to New Zealand on a PLT basis than have left. On average, we’ve gained 12,800 people a year. But are these new arrivals less skilled, less educated, and less qualified than those who have departed? Have we lost ‘brainpower’, despite gaining people? Looking at the annual average over the past 15 years, New Zealand had net PLT outflows among occupations such as service and sales workers (an outflow of 670), labourers (300), machine operators and assemblers (250), and agricultural and fishery workers (200). However, there was a large inflow of professionals (1,570). This illustrates a net loss of people in less skilled occupations and a gain in more skilled occupations. The difference in occupations between arrivals and departures can be explained in part by the restrictions on PLT travel into New Zealand. Specifically, only a certain number of skilled migrants can enter each year (this applies to citizens of all countries except New Zealand and Australia). On the other hand, people departing for Australia do not face the same system of visas and permits, so those in less skilled occupations are not restricted. However, the majority of people moving to New Zealand on a PLT basis fall into the 'not applicable' occupational categories. On average, these migrants have numbered 9,830 per year over the last 15 years. This group includes children, spouses, and retirees, the majority of whom are not in the workforce. Many will be coming with, or to join, skilled migrants. This group also includes overseas students coming to New Zealand for a year or more. When these students gain their qualifications, many stay in New Zealand on work or residence permits, so they become 'brain gains'. The figures do not support the idea of a brain drain. Even though we do lose some skilled people each year, we gain even more. 'Brain exchange' seems to better describe the figures. However, whether these 'brains' are well used once in New Zealand (eg doctors driving taxis) could be debated. ConclusionThis myth is busted.
