If we want to stay prosperous we are going to have to improve education.

You can start by firing all the Indian and Chinese engineers and re-hiring the US citizens who were forced to train their own replacements...on the grounds that there was a "severe shortage" of qualified technically competent people.

If the Americans were so under qualified, why were THEY the ones who had to train in the H1-B's?

Executives lie through their teeth every chance they get.

I have swapped e-mail with quite a few Americans who were forced to train foreign replacements on pain of being denied a severance payment. Some of that behavior happened inside my own company. There has been a small measure of schadenfreud as the replacements failed to perform and the displaced American engineers contracted to resume the work at much higher rates.

Build your own company and then you can hire who you like.

You noticed that too? I don't know if you can really call it lying or that they are just very good at convincing themselves that whatever is to their benefit must be the truth.

One thing I noticed long ago is that all employment aps have a line that says that furnishing false information is grounds for termination of any job you may obtain by furnishing false information. Yet, I don't think I ever took a job but what I found out later that I was lied to when applying for the job.
