I’m not parroting any talking points.

Where would I get talking points from?

I’m just telling you my opinion of several generations of young people, which are the type of people companies hire.

But okay, whatever you say, man.

We have the smartest, most capable young people ever, obviously, who could possibly conclude anything else.

Are you a supervisor who has hired anyone?

Do you know any American students in engineering or tech programs? I do. It sounds like you don’t.

This issue concerns IT workers of all ages. And an increasing number of young people are choosing IT majors.

The problem is that, not only are foreign workers imported here to take IT jobs, but also many jobs are exported to other countries.

Example: https://www.bls.gov/ooh/computer-and-information-technology/computer-programmers.htm#tab-6

Laura’s point was that foreign tech workers aren’t smarter than American tech workers; they’re just willing to work for less.

Aren’t you tired of American companies shipping jobs overseas? And bringing in foreign workers to replace American workers?

I voted for Trump and will vote for him again. Some of us just wish he’d see this issue for what it really is.

**********************************************
That would be the charlatans who run the high schools and colleges that brainwash the kids into stupid degree plans and liberal thinking.

The kids spend thousands of dollars to get a degree in some crap “studies” and go in debt for years, but are seldom qualified for an entry level job that could lead to a career.

I retired as a professional in the Quality discipline for 30+ years. A basic tenet was to find the root cause of a problem and fix it.

The root cause of today’s younger generations not being qualified for specific fields of employment is America’s educational system and the unions and liberal administrators. OVERHAUL THE SYSTEM!
