Turn the jobs into video games.
Our youngsters will be good at them.
The problem is that he’s wrong. The education establishment, to have as many dues paying teachers as possible so the union can fill its pockets, lowered the standards of education so that more teachers would have to be hired and it would take longer.
If you compare what kids are learning now, with what they were learning 100 years ago, the kids today are being educated to about grade 5 or so.
Indian programmers are just programmers, same as Americans. They will just work cheaper.
Have the tech giants been buying Trump???
Elon and Vivek stepped on the same rake. Not too smart of them.
This article is thick propaganda.
I believe the word “retarded” was made up by the RAT writing this piece. Inflammatory on purpose language at best.
And yes, the leftist domination of our education system in America has made youngsters ignorant,lazy, and wokey, but not stupid.
Hard to deny that fact. We can do better so that citizen kids can take those jobs and be successful.
just remember the left wants desperately to break up the association of Musk and Trump, I doubt he said Americans are too retarded when he made his billions right here in the USA, not in South Africa. Any perceived disagreement between Trump and Musk will be reported as a Civil War and the end of alliance between the two. It will get worked if both sides are smart and realize it can’t happen all at once.
No two people are going to agree 100% all the time, I think expanding the H1-B visa program would be a huge mistake stop the MAGA momentum before Trump takes office.
IF and it’s a gigantic and huge IF, you are going to expand the H1-B visa program it can’t happen before we have a massive number of illegal deportations, Americans will not stand for it.
These jobs in particular are skilled high paying jobs that need to go to Americans before anyone else.
Elon is quickly ruining all the good will he might have had with Americans. He can move to India if he wants.
This is what we expect from you, Mediate opinion pieces.
Yeah.
Musk isn’t diffrerent from “the bloodsucker billionaire ruling class” at all, except for the fact he started, owns, and runs a company that has put us so far ahead of all other spaceflight entities that his country is launching 90% of all payloads by weight into space.
Your post is asinine.
I’m hoping there’s a plan behind this ploy. I’d say, “Americans are not up to these jobs because they’ve been allowed to skate by in public schools. Passed without doing the work & now are entering the workforce functionally illiterate.”
Now let’s start discussing EDUCATION in America, & how to fix it.
H1B’s can be discussed AFTER we solve our other ‘immigration’ issue.
"Elon Musk Endorses Post Suggesting SOME Americans Are Too ‘Retarded’ To Do Skilled Jobs"
Very different reading than interpolating "all" into the meaning. I'd be good with "some Americans educated in Democrat-biased public schools" are functionally illiterate and most certainly innumerate.

Musk’s X is now shadow-banning people against the Indian invasion.

My questions are:
• When one person gets an H-1B, who/how many are permitted to piggy-back on it?
• If no one is allowed to piggy-back on it, how do family make it over?
• If the H-1B holder is the one with the needed skill, what are their family bringing that we need? (Because where I live, I see spouses, kids, and (grand) parents.
• If they are just bringing themselves, is the H-1B holder supporting them or do they apply for taxpayer-funded benefits from the government?
• Are H-1B holders permitted to apply caste/class customs from their country of origin against their co-workers?(Hiring and social practices, for example.)
He’s speaking in too general of terms. However, he’s right about one thing. Our education system doesn’t educate. It indoctrinates. I’ve been retired now going on ten years, and even back then, it was rare to hire someone straight out of our learning institutions without having to further educate them on the job for at least another year.
Being a really accomplished computer professional is no more difficult or notable than being an excellent building contractor or dentist. The “whiz kid” myth is pure media created bullshit. The “whiz kid” from India, even more so. Musk is trying to save money on his payroll here.
Indians really don't like Indians! The social caste system is alive and well in India, and it will blow you away when you actually see it in person.
He’s right about American retards and the FR pearl clutchers are here right on que.
There’s no question we don’t have enough skilled craftsmen, welders, plumbers, electricians, etc. We used to have lots of them but trade schools were de-emphasized and the line that everybody “needed” to go to college was pushed.
Meanwhile people who are skilled in the trades can do quite nicely for themselves.
Very misleading of these bottom feeder blogs to mischaracterize the post as “anti-white”. No idea where that came from. It is an indictment of the whole American educational establishment. The post does not single out any race.
