The answer to that is `nobody'!

See...foreigners are coming here taking jobs away from Americans. Its gotten
so companies are even forcing American employees to train their foreign
replacement or lose whatever benefits and unemployment support they've accrued.

And a lot of these jobs are high-tech, even in Silicon Valley.

You got people out here who spend 4 or 5 years going to college on a student
loan (paid for by taxpayers) and they're majoring in `Black Studies'...or
`Women's Studies'...or `Community Relations'!

They get a degree in that crap, and wonder why there's no job market in their
`field'.

True story:

After I got home from Vietnam I was going to go to college on the GI bill.

I even went so far as to check out a pretty well respected college here in
this area. It would have been free...all I had to pay was parking, textbooks
and support myself with some sort of job.

The quickest and easiest degree was a BA in Sociology.

Sociology!? I was working in a major ship yard by then and went in to the
office one afternoon after shift and asked the girl who'd hired me what sort
of position I could expect to get into with a BA in `Sociology' if I went
to Grossmont and graduated?

She asked me what I was doing aboard the ships on the ways right then. I told
her I was a burner and a fitter.

She said `after you get your degree you can look forward to being a burner and
a fitter! We don't have much use for `Sociologists' in a ship yard'!

Those who are bitching and complaining about there's `no jobs for them' and
they spent a taxpayer-funded student loan doing four years getting a degree
in `Black Studies' or `Women's Studies' or `Community Relations' wasted a
good opportunity and taxpayer's money.

Notice the `black lives matter' movement?

Where do they get all this time and money to go from city to city, protest
to protest? Who pays for all that?

*I* can't even afford to go to SeaWorld once a year....and they can spend all
this time and money for travel from place to place protesting!
