Cost is a big factor. International tuition here is still far cheaper than tuition at a US school of equal stature.

The question then is - how many of these students are being retained in country of study after graduation? I know a large portion of my graduating class made the rush south after graduation. Perhaps, even if the US isn't schooling them, the foreign nationals are still arriving to boost the US's science and technology sector.
A lot are leaving. There were studies for several decades analysing this.

Also, in grad school it is often paid for. I don't know anyone who really had to pay anything for their PhD at the best schools.
