yes, but who invents? lawyers? public school teachers?

engineers invent, and the field is collapsing, so which americans will be around to invent? none.

invention will come from the places where engineers are employed, and investments in new technolog are being made - and that's not in the US anymore.

Wrong. Invention comes from inventors. Engineers figure out "how" not "what".
