Has Dr. Sowell been inside a college of engineering lately? Foreign professors and teaching assistants form the bulk of the technical faculty at many public universities these days.

Where's he been? Hoover Tower must be made of ivory.


But they're not doing it at half the pay, are they? That was his point. The foreign professors and the like are not driving down wages. If they were, natives could not afford to work in the profession anymore, and would be rather upset about it. OK?

If it was twenty-seven percent less the point is the same. It's enough less that there are hordes of them and natives do bitch about it. That's the point. Sowell is pretending that there isn't wage suppression by immigrunts among the professorate when, in fact, there is.
