ok break down the supposed STEM degrees. How many in each discipline? There are not enough ENGINEERING and COMP SCI folks, with experience, in the market right now. Especially comp sci with strong backgrounds.

When we do find them, they're costing more than $150k per year.

https://www.donaldjtrump.com/positions/immigration-reform: "We graduate two times more Americans with STEM degrees each year than find STEM jobs, yet as much as two-thirds of entry-level hiring for IT jobs is accomplished through the H-1B program."

Ask Trump - he thinks the fact he presented is telling.

There are not enough ENGINEERING and COMP SCI folks

So we have too many science (S) and math (M) folks - none of whom can do engineering or tech?

When we do find them, they're costing more than $150k per year.

And American workers shouldn't be paid that much?

From Trump's link: "Engineering has the highest rate at which graduates move into STEM occupations, but even here the supply is over 50% higher than the demand. IT, the industry most vocal about its inability to find enough workers, hires only two-thirds of each year’s graduating class of bachelor’s degree computer scientists. "
