I call BS. Look if they can find Chinese workers to do the jobs, they can find Americans.
I called "BS" too. It smelled like open immigration/outsourcing propaganda so I did a bit more sniffing on the author Geoffrey Colvin.
This came up as a quote of his when I Google "Geoffrey Colvin"+"immigration": The best solution for group one is simple: Eliminate the cap on H1-B visas, currently just 65,000 a year. That is hardly a radical notion. For nearly 40 years, until 1990, there was no cap.
These anti-national shills are so transparent.
