Stop importing H-1B invaders and Americans will flock to the stem degrees because employers faced with a shortage will start paying more money in salaries. The reason why we have so many lawyers in this country is because lawyers don’t have to compete with foreigners and they are still paid well.
If you cut off the importation of programmers and engineers wages will rise and more Americans will pursue those careers. Supply and demand is pretty simple.
The Trump Administration must to honor its MAGA promises or go the way of the Tories in the U.K.. The time for abandoning political promises to Americans is over.
If Trump falls on this issue he can go to hell.
“What matters is not demonizing people with different opinions, but instead working to find consensus or compromise if possible.”
How is is possible to compromise with people who support taking American jobs in order to further fatten globalist wallets?
“The Trump Administration must to honor its MAGA promises or go the way of the Tories in the U.K.. The time for abandoning political promises to Americans is over.”
Amen! We voted for MAGA not a god-king.
H1B bump for later....
VANCE CAME OUT HARD AGAINST THIS. Never trusted Viek. he was a Soros fellow.
Step ! for Trump a few seconds after he’s sworn in should be to revoke ALL security clearances SECRET or above. All those affected would have to be re-vetted. My guess is many will quit knowing they cannot pass the re-vetting procedure. Also, without the ability to sell secrets, their market value falls considerably.
Far too often we are called to find a consensus between sewage and pure water. Whether it is a cup of each or a teaspoon of sewage in a barrel of water the resulting mixture is still sewage.
Smellin’ what you’re cookin’, w_n.
“VANCE CAME OUT HARD AGAINST THIS”
Can you provide a link?
If you want to start a reformation you first have to give the powers-that-be incentive to reform. Cutting off the H-1B program is one way to force them to do right for our children.
“...until American education improves, starting with elementary school.”
So much depends on the quality of mathematics instruction.
If a student isn’t operating on all eight cylinders by the seventh grade, ready for an advanced math track, with parents aware and pushing for the school district to support that student’s success, the prospect of success in terms of a solid engineering education and respectable BS degree starts to fade.

So much for Viek being Gov. or Senator. Good.

2022 tweet.
He is reported as having come out against H1B visa abuse as a Senate candidate.
That’s the conundrum: even if we agree on a goal and realize where we went wrong, getting from here to there will take time and work. And in the meantime, ?????
“Go to any university and look at who is taking the engineering classes - most of them are foreign students, and most of them will return to their home countries to work.”
I’m aware of no evidence that the native minority is insufficient to meet American business needs.
And even if it is, that’s a pipeline problem; it doesn’t change the fact that current American STEM degree holders are underemployed.
There is NO current need for H-1B. (Not that you said there is.)
One other point:
Certain parents of public school students get them tutored-up to within an inch of their intellectual lives. From an early age.
This is not necessary if the parent(s) instead encourage proper study skills and diligence. Once again, from an early age! and for students who demonstrate at least some promise of success in math (aptitude)
In order to ensure that their child is slotted into their public school district’s advanced mathematics track.
An example of the double-advanced mathematics track provided by one New Jersey public school district:
6th: Pre-Algebra
7th: Algebra I
8th: Geometry
9th: Algebra II Honors
10th: AP Pre-Calculus
11th: AP Calculus AB
12th: AP Calculus CD
If your public school district does not provide such a track, or if the number of students offered such a track beginning in 5th or 6th grade is chronically too few compared to the size of the student body, consider another school system.
Another pro-tip: In any given school district offering high-level mathematics curricula through senior year in high school, over-tutored students, who may not even be the most gifted or intelligent students in the district, can end up displacing more naturally gifted students whose parents weren’t able to afford Cadillac-level tutoring.
Bringing in people for you to train to replace you in your job is dead wrong...
