DR. CAMAROTA CATCHES THE PRESIDENT WITH HIS ENGINEER STATS DOWN

A very interesting post from http://www.numbersusa.com/ about unemployed American engineers being displaced by imported workers. This follows this post about House of Representatives assignments. This follows this post analyzing the best current candidate on immigration.  This follows this post about the new congressional districts in Texas being redrawn so that the new seats favor the Democratic party in a Republican state. This follows this post about how to Report Illegal Immigrants such as the 30,000 openly illegal immigrants in the border town of El Paso, where President Barack Obama recently bashed immigration enforcement! For more that you can do to get involved click HERE and you can read a very interesting book HERE!

And Remember when contacting public officials to please be firm but respectful. Any over the top messages could result in law enforcement action against you. Just let these politicians know that you are aware of what they have done and that you intend to remove them from office in the 2012 elections.



DR. CAMAROTA CATCHES THE PRESIDENT



WITH HIS ENGINEER STATS DOWN



This morning, I sent you an email with the amazing video of an engineer's wife asking Pres. Obama why he is bringing in foreign engineers when American engineers like her husband can't find a job.



The President found the question "interesting" because "industry tells me that they don't have enough highly skilled engineers."



The White House sent out spokespersons to defend the President by talking about how not enough Americans are getting engineering degrees.



My immediate question was: How many Americans with engineering degrees don't have an engineering job?



Amazingly just this afternoon, Dr. Steve Camarota of the Center for Immigration Studies has published a report that answers the question.



We will talk more about the meaning of these stats in the webcast. But chew on the numbers.



U.S.-BORN INDIVIDUALS WITH ENGINEERING DEGREES (under age 66)

(based on most recent American Community Survey by the Obama Administration itself)



101,000 -- U.S. engineers looking for a job who can't find any work at all

244,000 -- U.S. engineers who have dropped completely out of the labor market

1,470,000 -- U.S. engineers who are working but no longer as engineers

========================================================

1.8 million -- Total U.S.-born individuals under the age of 66 who have engineering degrees but don't have an engineering job



There is a lot to say about all those numbers. But one thing that can't be said is that the United States doesn't "have enough highly skilled engineers" among its own citizens.



These numbers were compiled by Pres. Obama's own staff. But he apparently never thought to check on the facts. He was perfectly willing -- just like most Republican leaders -- to simply take the word of the business elites with whom he hobnobs when they claim they have to have more foreign engineers.
