Which is a problem. We have shortages in every STEM field even with folks coming in from China and India. I am a STEM volunteer so maybe I'm a bit biased but I tend to think more people would be able to pick it up or find an interest in it if they understood why and how it works. Kinda hard to get excited about memorizing flash cards and following rote steps...
The only reason I did it is because I was able to turn around and apply it to physics, comp sci and engineering. All of which are far more accessible than pure math (in my humble opinion).

No, it's human nature.

Most of humanity is dumb. These aren't fields for dumb people. It's a harsh appraisal of humanity, but it's accurate.

And I think that's not something you can teach.
