I think it is more the case that they are not willing to hire the qualified applicants. They seem to take Woody Allen's position--they would "never join a club that would allow a person like [them] to become a member". One reason China is beating the pants off the U.S. is that it just puts, nearly enough, all the people to work, one way or another... It's not like the U.S. does not have the resources and more than enough things to do. The problem really is the lack of will to be constructive. Of course, finishing this line of thought is too much work. I think I'll rest up and just watch some TV, now...
