Yet, pres Trump continues to assault and tries to destroy those very educational institutions that can create those talented workers.

We have the talent. Business don't want to pay Americans American wages. America first only goes so far.

All this blither-blather about US labor problems coming from a geriatric pedophile who hired young girls like chattel to be masseuses at his golf resorts and walks away from unpaid bills.

One AI snapshot:

"The Trumpf junta is accused of owing American businesses "hundreds of millions of dollars in unpaid bills" for work already completed, particularly related to the dismantling of the USAID. Several cities across the US have reported unpaid bills from Trumpf campaign rallies, including St. Cloud MN and Lebanon, OH, where bills for security and public safety services remain unpaid."

The job of the presidency, with the assistance of a wishy-washy U.S. Supreme Court, does have its perks which Trump has accelerated with his sense of overblown entitlements.

Until cities and contractors, as you mentioned, cease to be flattered by the attention, they're going to continue getting reamed up the you-know-what. It's up to them. However, scant few have figured it out.

Hi TwinPac: Steve Bannon and Felon Musk were feuding about this very point about needing educated people from overseas in the US workforce. Dummkopf Trumpf has spent his whole life screwing over laborers and contractors, but as you pointed out: "However, scant few have figured it out." Indeed. And didn't Trumpf announce an exorbitant fee for H1-B visas?

The Republican sheeple will continue following their Judas Goat right into the slaughterhouse while listening to his bleating.

Definitely has nothing to do with the billionaire donors abusing the lowest rungs of the H-1B system so they don't have to hire US college students.

"You can't take people off an unemployment line and say, I'm going to put you into a factory where we're going to make missiles.'"

Hmmm. Trying to remember what my employment status was, before I got hired by the defense contractor that worked on missiles...

Anyway I mostly think Trump is right.
Most Americans are pathetically stupid.
The redder the state, the stupider the Americans.

You would think that revelation would prompt the "ruling class" to do more to better educate American children. But no. The greedy bastards would prefer to have other countries spend the money to educate its children and then pilfer the educated from those countries.

You see where Trump wants 600k Chinese students to follow in the same path as the great Oneironaut?

F-1 visa convert to H1B, EB1,EB2 -) greencard.

Good luck citizens, us foreigners pay for your college education, work your jobs and make great money at your American companies, and you still owe money on loans.

One-third of America have a cultural bias against knowledge and learning?

Just as a guess.

People who love learning get their educations in the fullest sense of the word.

The others spend their time on vaccine conspiracies and sundry preoccupations,

Suddenly?

Where have you been the past 40 years?

Republicans have been personally sabotaging public education across this nation.
