1) Get a bunch of kids to get STEM degrees
2) Import a bunch of H-1bs
3) A bunch of graduates become electricians or plumbers

Better idea:
1) Get a bunch of kids to get STEM degrees
2) Place strict limits on H-1bs and fine any company that hires H-1bs for less than the going rate
3) Wind down much of the Military Industrial Complex and employ the grads in more useful pursuits such as the space program, nuclear power, road/dam/bridge repair, medical research, etc.

Agreed.

It’s immoral to import stem workers.

It drives stem salaries and job opportunities down for Americans.

And it strip mines needed human capital from developing countries.
