This is Bloomberg OPINION so I don't know if it's even worth responding to. It's essentially someone's personal blog, right? Anyway, the premise seems wrong. The post doesn't do a good job convincing me that there is a problem. U.S. employers may have been "crying out in vain for new workers" even before the pandemic, but getting a job was just as hard as ever. If there's a skill shortage, overseas talent can and has been filing it. Most people here seem to be responding to the angle that skilled U.S. workers are a thinning herd. This is likely exacerbated by the fact that getting an education in the U.S. is almost impossible. Most people can't afford college, and financial aid doesn't go far enough.
