It is patently untrue that "all of the jobs" go to H1B foreigners. I was gainfully and happily employed in that industry for over 43 years. I retired because I'm tired. Now I am going to tech embedded computing in high school. I invented that particular class by myself by mentoring FIRST robotics.

The point is, an education is for your personal edification, not getting a job. Armed with drive and cunning, one can build a career of choice. I learned little in college that was applicable to my career: I grew in knowledge and experience through time.

The single biggest mistake people are making with their education is mistaking it for a trade school.

And being redundantly redundant.

Yes. But I know where top grads of top ranked schools can’t even get interviews and — even can’t get acknowledgements of their job apps sometimes. A LOT of jobs are being given to foreigners — a LOT.

Really? From where I’m sitting it looks a lot more like a political/ethnic purge than business needs at play.
