Many of us on FreeRepublic are engineers. Growing up we had the space program as inspiration. It's hard to imagine that level of expenditure on a task that was about exploration and political stature today. Now we have a vacuum. Electric cars and windmills are not inspiring to the young. About all they get inspired with that is technical is gaming.

We produce too many lawyers instead of engineers. When my son took the bar exam in Minnesota a couple of years ago there were over 600 applicants taking the exam that day. I imagine the numbers taking the bar exam have not shrunk by any extent in the intervening years and I cannot imagine that there are that many lawyer jobs in the state to handle the number of graduates. My son was very fortunate and landed a great job with a Minneapolis law firm. Many of his law school classmates were not so lucky and did not get jobs.

I have a degree in Engineering Physics. About the only use I got out of that diploma is some bedbugs sh*t on it.

Obama has a population in need of self esteem. Slap an Engineer title on ‘em. pay them big, and let ‘em loose on FB software.
