What does he mean by “we”? Does he have a mouse in his pocket?

Government always is the solution, in the Socialist mind. If we want more American-born engineers, get rid of the teachers’ unions and give parents school vouchers. The turnaround will be dramatic.

Actually, engineering was going to be our future 25 years ago.

Would this be yet another case of title inflation, e.g. a garbage collector becomes a ‘sanitation engineer’?

End the lopsided "free trade" agreements, enforce IP laws, lift the idiotic taxation laws that handicap US companies while giving foreign companies an advantage and most importantly, end the insane H1-B program, end mass immigration itself, and...you won't have to spend a dime on sending kids to engineering school. The pay will encourage them to do it themselves.
Worked that way for me.
Kids don't go to Engineering school for a really simple reason...no jobs on the other side of that heroic effort.
Pecuniary incentive changes that really fast.

Obama to announce new employment plan...
We need 10,000 engineers right away and trains too.
We need 10,000 dog catchers stat!
We need 20,000 college educated street sweepers!
We need 150,000,000 democrat voters on the double!
We need one golldamned plumber to fix the sink
in the oval office, it’s been gummed up since
bill Clinton used it last!
Statist Central planning only creates a false economy.

Still with the “Training”,”Partnership”,”Synergy with government”. The buzzwords written by his cadre of metro-sexual douchebags and their Ivy league degrees. Obama right now is like the BF that your Sister dumps but still wants to hang around your house and help with chores and projects. The guy who just doesn't get that she want him gone, Sis is not interested in just being friends. Business does not want to be your freind Bammy, they want you to go away, leaved them alone, get off their back, they don;t want or need your help. But then again government needs something to do and if they can't create a need they try and discover one.

I’m just kind of curious....if you trained 10k more punks to be engineers...and in four years they graduate...they’d expect to find engineering jobs. If the ten thousad engineering jobs don’t exist today....who will hire Johnny Junior or Mandy in four years? The only answer? The US government. Who would pay for their salaries? The US tax payer. And what would they research that we aren’t already researching in the private sector? Hmmmm....that might be the $64k question.
To: tobyhill
The program he unveiled Monday would try to ensure U.S. engineering students have the skills to qualify for openings that companies sometimes struggle to fill.
So, the engineers we are graduation aren’t up to the
mark? Sounds like a problem in the educational system,
which the democrats have been shoveling money to like
mad for how long?

It is not the Government’s role to train Engineers any more than it is to subsidize “green” industries.
To barry the zero, I say:
Keep our borders secure, fight and defeat our enemies.
Other than that, don’t mess with things of which you have no knowledge nor understanding.

My granddaughter graduated w/ honors as a mechanical engineer 2 yrs. ago.
She has been working in a daycare center while trying to land a job.
Finally got an engineering job last week.
Jobs are scarce.

Nice! We're going to train more engineers! It sure would be nice if somebody created JOBS for those engineers (In the USA/. I'm an unemployed Manufacturing Engineer with loads of medical device experience, but thanks to Obamacare, I'm too expensive.
This is what really frosts me about "Job Training". They never worry about employing the "trained" people. I guess the training creates the jobs.

Zer0 was in the RTP, NC today.
He visited Cree (TOTUS was prominent also) They make LED lighting.
While he extolled the hiring Cree has done he failed to mentioned that of the 5,000 employees , half are in China.

...training 10,000 new American engineers every year.
Whatever this "plan" is people better look at it carefully. These "American engineers" may not be "American Citizens".
