Very very few American students are that well prepared as freshmen.

Well duh. Americans have been black listed from IT careers, especially white males.. Why study those things? IT DOESN'T MEAN THEY CAN'T.

The Indian mafia works just like the Italian mafia - they work together to take over.

This was about 30 years ago and I agree with you about the blacklisting. However, first and second year courses in calculus and physics are foundation courses for a variety of fields in engineering.

According to a dear friend of mine in IT, that is the behavior of hires from India and China who were hired LONG AGO.

The present day hires are NOT AT ALL LIKE THAT.

Furthermore, they tend to be lazy, and want to go back to their home countries for weeks at a time.

At one meeting, a supervisor suggested that if IT could get along well without them for weeks at a time, their value was questionable. My thoughts...a good point.

Who knew that the takeover would be so complete and so devasting to our home grown work force.

Can we do something about it now.

YES.

Those companies also received other benefits in some way or another. Yes, it was quite profitable to hire foreigners.

Some companies saw the lack of foresight and decided to discontinue with foreign hires.

I agree with you. My comments were directed to how American colleges of engineering are becomming more woke and how foreign students thant enroll in engineering programs in the US are better prepared as freshmen than most American students.

You may be assuming that the point is to improve the lives of those at the bottom or of everyone. If the point is to make sure that the people at the top stay at the top, then maybe the Indians are doing a very good job.

Wow do you consider yourself a mainstream Republican? If so is that the new GOP platform? Is it: "Vote for us because we think Americans are fat, dumb and happy!!!" ???

Are we going to see this catchy slogan as a '22 bumper stickler???

I don’t disagree, but that’s only one side of the equation. Americans also need to pick up their game as well.

Any group that chooses to promote itself benefits thereby. If the left-handers at your company feel that left handers are more deserving and so select left handers for their teams, put right handers in spots where they won’t earn kudos, hire left handers nearly exclusively, and communicate regularly using left-handedism (obviously here real left handers don’t have a language right handers don’t commonly speak) then they have a bit of an advantage going up the chain.

For a more obvious example, how did it come to be that radical leftists now infest the top positions in academia, even though their ideas are destructive to any definition of logical thinking?

“Their caste system may say something else.”

Most Indians in the US are from the upper casts, which have high IQ’s, comparable to Ashkenazi Jews.

That is most likely the best explanation for their success.

For decades the American public and corporations have been enamored with sports. Just look at the local news from Podunk Philadelphia; many announcements of full scholarships for kids who can hit ,catch,kick, or throw a ball but how many pictures of brilliant engineering students?

And don’t forget the too-common American disdain for “bookworms” and “nerds”. If a society shuns true science it will have fewer true scientists.

The bring their caste system with them when they come here.

I see it at my office. They discriminate against themselves depending on which of the 4 caste you are from.
