Why don't we just let immigrants do 100% of the scientific / technological work for us? Michio Kaku says our educational system is terrible and regular US citizens are too dumb to handle STEM jobs.

Oliver White
He was trying to make the point that we need to fix our k-12 education system, not that we should rely more on immigrants. He's right. Too many HS graduates are not even legitimately college-ready when they get out.
Carter Taylor
No, he literally says US citizens aren't smart enough to do these jobs and that the American scientific establishment would collapse without immigrants.
Mason Bell
Because they have no incentive to assimilate. I don't care about your race because ethnicity is what wars are faught over, not race per se. I don't want these people to stay in my country just because they make liberalism look good on the face of it. It doesn't work in the long run, and everyone knows this.
Ryder Morales
Yes, because our education system is shit.
You are clearly the kind of American he's talking about. You don't have the slightest clue what point he's even trying to make.
Aiden Baker
Too dumb = Too expensive
Austin Richardson
Did you even watch the video? What you're arguing is what the other guy was talking about, not Michio Kaku. Michio Kaku said HB1 visa immigrants aren't taking jobs from Americans because Americans can't do their jobs and he didn't say the solution is to fix our education system, he said the solution is use our HB1 visa to bring in immigratns who can do these jobs.

It's funny how everyone seems to agree that the US education system sucks and then turn around and say teachers aren't paid enough or appreciated...
Why appreciate someone who's doing a terrible fucking job? That's where the problem is, the system is made by clueless bimbos for clueless bimbos. The dumb girls I went to highschool with are now teaching at my highschool and I'm not even thirty.
We can fix the education system through privitizing but before that we need to separate sports and academics, make it a 50/50 gender split for teachers and only hire teachers above the age of 30 so the teachers are at least in theory more mature than the students.
Adrian Sanders
I watched the video a while back. The man was talking about the fact that our schools don't prepare kids for college, especially in STEM fields. Just because you have a chip on your shoulder related to immigration doesn't mean the dude thinks we should be abandoning American kids.

>The man was talking about the fact that our schools don't prepare kids for college, especially in STEM fields.
That's not what he's talking about at all. You're either not remembering what the video was about or you just misunderstood it, but either way, Michio Kaku didn't say anything about schools needing to be fixed to prepare kids for college. His point in that video is very single-mindedly emphasizing how important the H-1B visa is and how these immigrants are the only ones who can do these jobs.
Noah Morris
>everything left of what I like is Communism
Get real hoss. Liberal sympathies are a big part of Academia, no doubt, but our schools are a long way from enforcing Communism.

literally who? our colleges are the best in the entire world
Jack Reed
Why don't American companies train American citizens for these jobs then? Companies are trying to exploit cheap foreign labor, cutting corners to save money. It saves them money to go around laws this way. It's not because they can't find any domestic employees, or that unreasonable wages would have to be paid to attract the require domestic talent. It's because companies are exploiting these foreign temp workers and treating them like local sweatshop workers.
Angel Butler
this. same goes for crime stats
Samuel Jackson
Too bad our primary education is shit and the students who get into the those best colleges in the world come from America's private and prestigious high schools that cost more to attend than a state university
Asher Price
Why not both? Stupid administrations hire stupid teachers.
If it's fine we wouldn't get so many complaints about it. It sucks. It could be doing way better. We all know that.
Tyler Jackson
even our public, lower-tier universities are quite decent
prestige is nice but not necessary

Benjamin Clark
You have some weird agenda in your mind that you're superimposing on him when his message is clearly "we need genius foreigners." Like I said, the other guy who talks after Michio Kaku is the one arguing your point, not Michio.
>America has a secret weapon! That secret weapon is the H-1B, without the H-1B the scientific establishment of this country would collapse! Forget about Google. Forget about Silicon Valley, there would be no Silicon Valley without the H-1B. And you know what the H-1B is? It’s the Genius Visa! Ok. You realize that in the United States 50% of all P.H.D. candidates are foreign born. At my system, one of the biggest in the United States, 100% of P.H.D candidates are foreign born.
>So don’t tell me that science is the engine of prosperity, you remove the H-1B Visa and you collapse the economy!
>In the Wall Street Journal editorialized in the Congress who wanted to ban the H-1B, saying they will take jobs away from the American people. The Wall Street Journal said: “Look, there are no Americans who can take these jobs, these are at the highest level of high technology.” They don’t take away jobs from Americans they create entire industries
Juan Rivera

Why? Isn't he just another TED talk tier talking head?
Because it's full of niggers/spics
white kids aren't even the majority anymore.
Henry Mitchell
Is there a problem with that?
Benjamin Cox
I don't believe that teachers should necessarily be paid more, but it's kind of obvious why low teachers salaries would result in shit teachers. If you're a smart young grad who just got a degree in a demanding STEM field, why would you choose a 50k teacher job with terrible prospects over a job in the industry that would have you earning six figures within a couple years?
Jackson Evans
Some state schools are among the best colleges in the world. The US currently has a STEM worker surplus. Kaku is just full of shit as per usual.

Xavier Allen
>If it's fine we wouldn't get so many complaints about it
Most who complain about our system always bring that ranking up whenever the issue comes up. None of them saying why the numbers are like that in the first place. Take away all that minority garbage, and suddenly the USA is competing with European and Asian nations, and have a crime rate that is similar as well. Latinos are aids, and blacks are cancer, the USA is infected with both.
Eli Martinez
Then you're clearly fucking retarded and only hearing what you want to hear. He says clearly that the problem is the educational system. God, you are so dumb.
Levi Ross
>Then you're clearly fucking retarded and only hearing what you want to hear. He says clearly that the problem is the educational system. God, you are so dumb.
Not an argument.
He never once says we need to fix our education system. He says repeatedly we need the H-1B visa.
Jaxon Lewis
True, four-year institutions in America are good, but it means fuck all for the aggregate of incoming students who come from high schools that do not properly prepare them for university standards. I don't think a university should offer remedial courses as many do. I don't think a university needs programs to integrate low-achieving students.
They need to GTFO higher education and go to trade school. Why suffer being a shitty student when you can head to the top of vocational work? Our government doesn't seem to understand this and wants everyone, literally fucking everyone to have a bachelor's degree.
Yeah, the problem is public schools not being held accountable for its failure to produce students of high enough calibre to enter university without needing remedial courses or handholding at the expense of taxpayer money. A high school degree should have prepared them for the work force or freshman year of college.
I was just pointing out that elite high schools on the east coast have costs and rates that are higher than state schools. I think four-year colleges in the U.S. are the best in the world.
Again, our HIGH SCHOOLS are fucked up beyond belief
Ryan Cox
This. There is nothing wrong with White or Asian student material per se, they'd be more than capable of learning everything required in a field like CS. But your problem in education is too much affirmative action and dropping the standards so that even the people who shouldn't be in college in the first place can meet them. This has led to the point where the fresh graduates in CS do not know how to program at all. I worked in SF for several years and I was a part of the team creating interview questions for the potential candidates and also interviewed them: about one in eight even passed the preliminary test which was for the entry level position. The reason why H-1B visas are a thing is because there's little to no local talent to fill the jobs, so they look for people from abroad to fill said jobs.
Fix the shitty education system, get rid of affirmative action, raise the standards so that stupid apes and women won't be able to pass even out of pity and people will start respecting the local degrees more.

I'm graduated HS in 2011 and a large portion of our assigned English was SJW tier shit. We studied like one Shakespeare play per year and the rest was all on the topic of feminism and oppressed dindus.
And this was in a "good" school system in an affluent county where many of my classmates went to Ivy League or otherwise top ranked Universities.
Given this, it's hard to deny the existence of a left wing indoctrination agenda behind public schooling.

>I was just pointing out that elite high schools on the east coast have costs and rates that are higher than state schools.
That's true but it's also not really relevant here. People being sent to exclusive private high schools and the like are being groomed for the very top levels of society. You don't need to be the son of a senator to become an entry level engineer or PHD candidate in physics whereas Kaku is somewhat imply you do.
>Again, our HIGH SCHOOLS are fucked up beyond belief
That's also true but again it's also not super relevant. We can't place all of our college graduates with the shit compulsory education system we have, improving it would only exacerbate the problem and make Kaku even more wrong.

The jap hires H1bs that get paid much less than Americans with similar (or better) education. H1b hires have less leverage to move employers in accordance with the rules of their Visas. Whereas an American MIT grad has tons of offers and is more free to leverage them than an H1b and can negotiate higher pay.
The jap is not addressing the cost-saving issue and instead trying to grandstand politically.
Money is at the root. This jap chose to make a political statement instead.
Isaiah Smith
that's because Japan is a homogenous society so everyone is like-minded. here in America you have like 4-5 different major ethnic groups on campus fighting with each other causing distractions for other students. that's the same reason countries like Denmark have been so successful in the past.

At my school here in Florida we'd have like 2 loudmouth Sicilians and a couple black kids and a latino making a ruckus and being distruptive for the whole class. It's incredibly distracting. So it's not much of a surprise that students don't do well in these multicultural shit hole schools we have. Some of the best schools in the country are high percentage white.

Students don't put what they learned in civics or government into practice. Some private high schools have field trips where students visit their state's capitol building, meet congresspeople and listen in during a bill proposal or something of the like. All super fucking as shit, but it's important to be involved in that.
The public schools can barely afford textbooks from this century.
