I really do hope you are right about that, but I’m personally having a very hard time seeing that in any of the young people that I know.

We should employ our people, Americans. We should properly educate them and employ them, and we should not import large numbers of foreign workers here. I do not know how to get that started, but that is what needs to happen. Our schools have become an threat to our country, because they constantly turn out idiots.

White and nerdy is still a thing in this country. And yes, they can code. Better than Indians and Chinese, I can assure you.

What did the young people you know major in? Engineering schools are still producing STEM graduates.

I’m taught at Auburn University in Alabama for 22 years teaching Computer and Electronic Communication Sciences. I had up until recently a whole big group of white and nerdy, Asian and nerdy and even black and nerdy students.

There’s still plenty of great schools teaching STEM here in the good ole USA.

Now if you look at California, Midwest and especially Northeast schools, and the typical liberal arts, social “sciences” and various “studies”, English Lit, Journalism, or Media type communications, then yes, you’d be right. Those would be “get stoned and party” curriculum majors.

The main thing this group learns to say in the after college work place is “Do you want fires with that?”
