Which is a problem.


No, it's human nature.

We have shortages in every STEM field even with folks coming in from China and India.


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

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.


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

People don’t realize the bigger issue in all of this. Most over societies don’t baby their students. In fact, they expect more and don’t compartmentalism things to hell. Other cultures don’t break course in math out by giving an entire year devoted to algebra, geometry, trig, etc. They are taught simultaneously and thus make more sense because you see the natural connections in real time as you learn them.

The US system tries to simplify things and compartmentalize them to hell. Same thing at lower levels. This is the issue and why many of these new methods don’t work.
