Watch a Washington State Governor utter blatant falsehoods on the current state of the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics labor market as well as pretty much dismiss out of hand someone speaking up who clearly has the career qualifications in a town hall meeting.

With friends like these who needs enemies? The IEEE-USA issued a statement supporting turning our University system into a glorified green card machine. They also have literally teamed up with a corporate lobbyist organization, the SIA, to issue their policy position. The IEEE-USA claims to be concerned about career and labor issues for it’s United States citizens, American members. Why would they betray their own members and issue policy that is a notorious and obvious method to flood the US labor supply and cause further erosion of U.S. engineers’ careers?
The Center for Immigration Studies gives some hints as to why.
The “free green card” proposals also comprise a response to the academic lobby, as U.S. universities have seen their foreign applicant pools for graduate programs shrink in recent years. Students in other countries are less interested in study here these days because the U.S. job market is poor while opportunities back home are burgeoning. This is causing academics to panic, since their lucrative federal research funding depends on having the “bodies” to work in the labs. Graduate study at the PhD level is unattractive to American students because the graduate assistant stipend is so low, as is the salary premium paid to PhDs…

Alan Greenspan’s solution to economic inequality in the United States is to turn all Americans into 3rd world serfs. He also thinks Americans really do not need middle class incomes, nope, we all are just greedy little chickens pecking out power for power’s sake.
We pay the highest skilled labor wages in the world.
We need to supress the wage levels of the skilled. We need to surpress wages in comparison to the “lesser skilled ”
- Alan Greenspan
Then Greenspan further claims that we don’t need money to be happy, it’s all about the pecking order order in our society! Americans are viewed as a flock of chickens, who need to be shipped off to the labor arbitrage slaughter house!
Alan Greenspan claims that the answer to solving social inequality is to make everyone poor! (except for those few elites right?) and then tries to suggest that all societies are some sort of sociopathic pecking order! Like this one based on color perhaps?
CrapMan000 found and edited this Greenspan clip with accurate gallows humor and black sarcasm commentary. CrapMan, we agree, this is disgusting to see someone claim the answer to today’s…
