OK
Here is the Fraud work of the day. This one has been pissing me off. I
wrote a full essay on this topic which is now on the NYLXS site if you
haven't already read it.
This is total canned political news by a fantastically funded lobbying
campaign which will sit there all day and all night until it strips
bare and semblance of reality.

Now this is what really makes me dead red:
An Economic Policy Institute study claims that there is a surplus
of American engineers, and, as a result, has garnered national headlines
in The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal and The Atlantic for
busting ?"The Myth of America's Tech-Talent Shortage"? It has
fueled protectionist critics who rail against the high-skilled visa
system for a being a low-paying indentured servitude scheme to trap
vulnerable foreigners into low-paying, exploitative companies.
How many lies can be stuffed into one poorly written paragraph?
First: This is an immigration, higher education,and fariness issue. It
has nothing to do with protectionism, although frankly I think using
Chinese Slave Labor to make outragously expensive iphones a moral
outrage founded on a nother whole set of lies and fraud.
Secondly: There is no Myth of America's fucking UNEMPLOYMENT RATES in
IT and the completely fucked up age discrimination and total failure of
our education system to get Americans who are unemployeed up to speed!!
Zuckerburg can go fuck himself. Education should NEVER be a criteria
for allowing or disallowing immigrants to come to the US. Only
humanitarian considerations whould be used. If they can't find enough
engineers than LOOK HARDER ... I have a bunch of them right here in the
Bronx...
