My point is that STEM is already too broad as it is to focus resources on chip fabrication. Neither Accounting Software skills nor Interior Design skills should be eligible for funding for this stated purpose. But certainly diluting STEM just causes us to move further from that goal. The types of approaches to early education are going to be more broad, as is necessary (and LEGO drone kits sound like a great approach to that), but a student has to specialize as they advance to higher education, and if we're not funneling enough students into the critical categories, we can lose all of our strategic advantage in technology.
