Don't fall for it folks, the STEM worker shortage is a myth.
- daniel-cussen 13y agoAbsolutely. Basic economics: you suppress the price of a good, and there'll be a shortage. I could see STEM immigration issues being debated on different merits, but not on the topic of a shortage. It really takes a lot of gall and dishonesty for certain Silicon Valley CEO's to, on the one hand, suppress wages, and on the other, say that the resulting shortage is because of immigration problems, when they themselves know the they're to blame.
