more anti-corporate rant... When are you going to accept it that is it not low wages that companies want but the wages that are justified by productivity. In the case of MS, it is even more so: they want talent with rigorous education. Americans enroll into computer science in much smaller numbers now, and general education is pretty bad (trips to the mall are more important than homework for the parents).
They are not entitled to any of that. If they find it, great, but not by breaking laws or any act of government.
The only thing they are entitled to do is go out of business and seek other employment, like every other person and company has to do.
Guys like Gates are very similar to the freepers who bash all American cars...if it is American, it is inferior-a whole group of self-hating Americans in my opinion who have no love for their country and can not be considered patriots.
Good posts!
It’s great that there are highly capable Americans capable of filling the kinds of jobs Gates is talking about.
But anyone familiar with the situation of most American grad schools knows that the engineering and computer science programs in said schools are disproportionately filled by foreigners.
That’s a fact, and facts aren’t anti or pro American-— they just ARE.
To train people from other nations in skills that could add to our domestic economy, yet then keep them from doing so is dumb.
