“Red China has no future; that is why the slaves are more than happy to come here”

I’m talking about all kinds of Asians. Japan, Singapore, Chinese in America, etc. Most non-Asian Americans just don’t care about education, especially math and science, and that has to change.
Now, here’s a guy who grew up in the segregated south, majored in math and computer science and worked his way up by cleaning toilets and flipping burgers. He wasn’t looking for excuses.

Couldn’t agree with you more in terms of Americans and their education; I also think a second language (any language, as long as it has a practical application) doesn’t hurt. I was a janitor for years in high school & college; it certainly kept me focused & doing my homework. I just think a lot of people who worked just as hard have been unemployed for some time now; the jobs math just doesn’t work out in terms of positions available and qualified applicants.
