Working people do not create jobs. They work the jobs that we create.

Entrepreneurialism comes from the middle class. Your statement is way off. Do you actually BELIEVE THIS?

We need to create an environment where bright people feel like certain professions especially engineering of all kinds are worthwhile professions to undertake. There are countless hours of study and schooling involved and it has to pay off. Then, when skills are acquired on the job and elsewhere, new companies are created with the fruits of this knowledge.

What we have at this juncture is a situation where no desk job is worth becoming educated for. Design work etc is being shipped offshore. You can make more money being a mechanic than going to MIT and training as an engineer.
