In order to turn this country around (not just manage the decline), we have to hit on all full cylinders in every aspect of economy, including trading with other countries. We will need a highly-skilled workforce to expedite our recovery. As we know, the free public education of this country is horrible. What does it produce? Fewer and fewer qualified students for colleges to become highly-skilled graduates (science, technology, engineering and math). It will take a generation or so to produce highly-skilled graduates of our own to participate in our economic recovery. Meanwhile, we have to borrow some of those from other countries.

Are you preparing for the ever-worsening skills gap?

By the way, did you have a chance to watch Ted Cruz's speech at Drake University yesterday?

H1b visas are used to cut overhead so don’t spin it. The American graduates are capable and trainable. I for one, am sick and tired of trying to work with people who cannot speak the language very well and if they can ariculate the language are totally lacking in the cultural use of the language. Retrain Americans. Start responsible unions. Give businesses tax credits for hiring American citizen graduates. Let foreign students, including doctors, stay in their own lands and build them up.

Just stop spinning. Sanction businesses big time for using foreign, cheap illegal labor. Just stop cutting and pasting talking points.
