Daniel Pianko _Tech Crunch_
why Sili Valley executives fall short when it comes to education
"Each year, many donate millions to...American colleges and universities that, together, graduate [about 135K more STEM students, and 11K more US citizen engineering students than] we did 25 years ago.   STEM jobs [are expected to increase in numbers] by more than 17% in the next decade, but an aging STEM work-force, and [2 to 3 times as many US] students graduating [every year for the last 15 years] with STEM degrees [than land STEM jobs] means there are [well over 2M STEM workers not in STEM] jobs in the USA..."
STEM executives and their hiring managers should be actively recruiting from more of the thousands of colleges and universities in the USA which have bachelor's, master's and doctor's degree programs in STEM fields.   They should be purchasing more display ads in print publications, as well as on-line and including their personal office desk telephone numbers, snail addresses, and e-mail addresses in those ads.   They should do a thorough and secure erase of their applicant/candidate management systems and actually read resumes and meet with applicants in person.

anger management: secret of murderer of news crew most media won't touch
"...I blame the media for covering up the high incidence of black-on-white [and black-on-black] violent attacks, which creates a false perception that blacks are under attack from whites.   I also blame racist black 'leaders' like [Obummer], Farrakhan and Sharpton for building up Flanagan's sense of grievance against whites.   But Flanagan's issues got deeper...   Documents unearthed by the New York Daily News detail Flanagan's parents' btter break-up when he was 8 years old...   'She was repeatedly threatening my life, at least on one occasion threatening to shoot me in my sleep, and the children have heard these threats and are understandably upset.'   Betty, who died in 2008, apparently did not respond to the claims.   A judge granted the father's request and awarded him physical custody of the kids.   The court also ordered Betty to move out of the family's home, stay 50 yards away from Vester sr's work-place and not 'attack, strike or otherwie disturb the peace of the 3 minor children'.   Yet this same woman taught high school in Oakland for 37 years, and neighbors recalled her as quiet and polite.   Likewise, her son was seen as 'very polite' by those who knew him and a 'shy gentleman', according to his high-school junior-prom date.   I have said over and over for the past 25 years that if you're raised by an angry parent or parents, it corrupts your spirit and causes you to become like the parent...   All angry people are mentally ill, to one degree or another...   Ultimately, Vester was an adult, and it was his responsibility to overcome the anger that was passed down to him.   Yet Vester excused that anger and was encouraged to do so by the media and black 'leaders'..."

"pass the rotten corrupt bill so you still won't know what is in it": Obummer's treaty to help Iran develop nuclear weapons and delivery systems
"Democrat pollster Pat Caddell has been here before.   As part of Jimmy Carter's inner circle, he witnessed the way the USA [the Carter regime] pulled the rug out from beneath the late shah of Iran, a [pro-USA], pro-Israel leader of one of the MidEast's most powerful Muslim nations in 1979.   It led directly to the brutal Iranian revolution, the deadliest war in the modern history of the Middle East in which more than 1M in Iran and Iraq were killed, the loss of a stable [ally to the USA], the rise of Hezbollah [and Hamas and Fatah and Houthi], an increase in terrorism worldwide, a major re-awakening of both Sunni and Shia Islamic fundamentalism, the taking of US hostages in Iran and nuclear [weapons] aspirations among Muslim nations in the Middle East, the un-doing of Jimmy Carter and th efirst election land-slide of Republican Ronald Reagan..."

2 inept amateurs could spark World War 3
"The British empire was founded by accident, run by brilliant amateurs and wrecked by professionals.   The [United States of America] was founded by design, run by the people and wrecked by professionals.   The terrible decline in the conduct of the professional classes (think lawyer or climate 'scientists', for instance) certainly leaves room for the gifted amateur.   But it does not leave room for the ungifted amateur.   Yet in the 2 most important seats of power on the planet -- the White House and 10 Downing Street -- sit 2 ungifted, inept amateurs.   World War 3 could be the result..."

Americans' ignorance about collectivism (communism, socialism, social democrats, nazism, fascism, regressivism masquerading as progressivism) is unbelievable
"Socialism has never [been good for the populace] but it is easy to sell to those who refuse to study history, which is why 'progressives' use academia as their base of operations...   If [the USA] is to survive the disastrous results of socialist experiments i government, we need to educate our citizenry on what socialism actually is, which is neither benign nor without hazard...   the nuances of modern socialism [are] merely cover for communism...   [Obummer] is a socialist, judging by his policies since coming to the power of the presidency...   Immigrants who have survived the Marx, Lenin system of communism are flocking to the Conservative Party and the Tea Party because they recognize how socialism works.   Here on Staten Island, we have had a large in-flux of immigrants from Russia and the Baltic States who say, 'that the national Democrats' socialistic policies remind them too much of the top-down oligarchy they fled in their native land..."
