So- here no one should get a Engineer bachelors degree because theyβre not important- yet ppl w/ Engineering degrees overseas should be hired instead π€·ββοΈ π€¦ββοΈπ€¦ββοΈπ€¦ββοΈπ€¦ββοΈ
I take it that what he means by βmotivatedβ is a willingness to work for next to nothing in harsh and unsafe conditions, sustained only by your passion for the job. Yeah, right.
Beyond funny that the people who rely on undereducated people to gain power, who demean expertise & who want to dismantle the Dept of Education now bemoan the dearth of qualified employees for their businesses.
This music I composed is microtonal, so you may not like it, but it's avantgard and is still incredibly ANTI TRUMP, and was composed in 2018, during its first term. Even more apropros now.
Elon needs a solid slave force. He just imports the tech workers (because they're highly educated but will work for pennies) leaving the rest of us to pick up what's left for a few more pennies.
The dumbing down of many Americans, now called MAGAs, was intentional from the days of Bush; teach to the test & don't really educate our young people. It's easier to lie them into submission if you have an uneducated population. The Koch Brothers, Waltons, John Birchers, etc knew that all too well.
See America has been withholding education for decades. It's been a critical issue for so long. Repubs always blocking the progress. Now you hear it from a foreigner. Will they change their ways?
If you think PEE & his descendants, his immediate cabinet, all the biilionaires & their descendants & white men won't be highly educated - SUPER WRONG.
I spend my day vetting resumes for a tech company. The H1B/OPT/F2 candidates all have master's degrees from US colleges. Our education system is the path to getting an H1B visa in STEM.
Thereβs a βshortageβ of qualified people who will work for pennies, so companies prefer to go through the visa process in order to take advantage and profit off cheaper labor.
"Motivated" means willing to live at the office to this guy.
Fuck that.
Sincerely,
A Principal Software Engineer who's been so untalented he's been hired back by companies after multiple contracts, but who doesn't work OT anymore.
Elon Musk and Donald Trump are successful bc they are RICH. You can be uneducated and have great business acumen. If you have great business acumen and inherit MILLIONS of dollars you can absolutely be successful and itβs not a reflection of being educated. Poor people donβt have this privilege we
Leon is just licking his chops at using H-1B Visas to trap Indian engineers as indentured servants. MAGAs insane, extreme xenophobia is screwing this up for him.
Indeed. Between Musk and Ramaswamy, my takeaways are:
1. Stay in school.
2. Go to college and grad school.
3. Stay away from the nerds; focus on jocks and prom queens.
4. Watch 90s teen sitcoms on YouTube.
Awesome post. I reposted. Whatever it takes to expose the extreme hypocrisy of this guy. They prefer foreign born engineers because they have complete control over them allowing them to pay them less for the same work. Wake up MAGA!
when he says "motivated", he means willing to put up with his demands for 24x7 intense efforts without end, constantly on call, willing to allow the benefits of labor stay with Musk, unable to leave for a better situation or demand more money.
what immigrant workers solve: low pay, no recourse.
Gee, itβs almost as if he is just some dumb rich tw-t that couldnβt finish college on his own and lies about his own accomplishments and qualifications.
I personally know a couple of people that have left the US permanently to receive a higher education with no cost to themselves and a better standard of living .
Iβm not sure what he actually believes. His success is based on generational wealth he didnβt earn and good luck investing in existing companies he bought with blood money from the mines.
This topic burns me more than most. They tell young impressionable people that higher education is useless and then turn to off shore educated talents. Do as I say, not as I do. Wake Up!
For some things, college is overrated and in some cases just saddles young people with needless debt.
We need to seriously rethink education in this country. I believe apprenticeships make more sense for a lot of jobs. I have hired morons with college degrees. They are no guarantee of intelligence.
I told my kids that if everyone went to college who is going to sit behind the counter at the 7-11? Not everyone should go to college but ALL workers no matter their position should earn a living wage. Iβm college educated, my husband is not. But give him anything to fix with his hands and he could
As a recent CS graduate the support they give to new grads is shameful. Ive sent out a billion applications and in 2024 I got 0 legit callbacks. In 2022 I got paid junior money to do a senior job and then got shit on by my employer (not even a tech company) for not meeting their ridic standard
Heβs duplicitous in how he approaches this crucial topic. It also can be very destructive to peopleβs lives if they choose to go without education.
So let me see if I get this right: Elon doesn't want Americans going to college (so they can do blue collar work), but then he wants to give out more visas because there aren't enough Americans with the tech knowledge to work the specialized jobs...
Heβs too chicken to say βI only want people completely beholden to me working at my companies. They shouldnβt have any movement allowed. They should be completely devoted to all of the crazy shit and abuse I throw at them. Americans have too much freedom and too many rights in the workplaceβ
Especially when he claims that the main reason to not hire Americans is the lack of educated American engineers, then turns around and tells us that the required education is a waste
Heβs only trashing Americans and our education system because H1B employees from third world countries will accept lower salaries than Americans in the same professions.
And pay attention in class, take notes, go over them at night until you can spout that stuff out by heart the next and you wonβt have to cram for your exams. You will retain the knowledge after to graduate which will make you useful in the world. Go to school. LEARN.
Musk is lying through his teeth. There's plenty of skilled IT labor in the US already. He doesn't want to pay their rates.
He wants H1-Bs who can't argue, ask for more, or leave because their citizenship is tethered to employment, making effective wage slavery.
yeah, lemme just subject myself to 100 bajillion in debt that will forever haunt me for the rest of my life and keep me from going anywhere except wage slavery
It can't be that 'painful and slow' - for Tesla alone Musk has employed 7,250 H1B employees covering a range of 1,318 different roles in the organisation. This is just a small extract ...
He's kind of right, but for the wrong reasons. Higher education is often a scam in the midwest. I think most people can get a better education for free online these days, we have so many resources.
Sadly, free learning doesn't convince employers that you'll serve them correctly like a diploma can.
What he actually means is I don't want "woke" people (Left-Leaning Americans) to work for me because they're the only ones that can get the job done not conservatives because they're dumb so I'll just get more immigrants from India to work for me
No, he actually isn't; not completely. His problem is that he's relying on the Texastani workforce, and the vast majority of college graduates from there are almost as stupid as a box of rocks, and ignorant of science.
1. Engineering programs are very impacted.
2. Schools treat students like cash cows
So, why are the kids being put down? People like Musk ruin everything and then blame the people they hurt.
Elmo mush is a two bit charlatan masquerading as smart, hip, insightful, finger on the pulse and other cliches. He has not originated anything nor does he contribute anything and acts like heβs above it all. Give Luigi his address!
Keeping people stupid was the preferred method in the middle ages to control them. Books were written in Latin and mostly only priests and similar could read them.

Itβs about the money.

It does a really good job of conveying the info in an interesting way. β
Can you point to any tutorials on the basics of editing for content creation?
If you have any of your own, I would be happy to pay for some tuition.
Ignore Musk!

So, the Elon Muck Trump plan all along was to bring in immigrants to fill American jobs!
WAY TO GO MAGA FOOLS!
Thanks...
will work 80+hrs/wk for peanuts.
Reward is privilege of nearness to the great man (tm)
Show some respect for MAGA Elonπ
Elections have consequences.
Also conservatives: βWe need more immigrants because you people are just so fucking dumbβ
He wants H1-Bs who can't argue, ask for more, or leave because their citizenship is tethered to employment, making effective wage slavery.
You mean it was all a lie???
WHAT??? SAY IT AINT SOπ

I have yet to see a good-paying job without a degree or some sort of vocational certification π€·ββοΈ
That's not really an option anymore, however, I can agree with that, so not something I would recommend to anyone young.
H1B foreign-born engineers are stuck where they are. Indentured servitude in the 21st century.
