"As for lay-offs in the IT sector, they are considerable. For example, the out-placement firm of Challenger, Gray, & Christmas reported that, over the first 11 months of 1999, the computer industry had laid off 60K employees.10 This number is equal to approximately 3% of total employment in the 'computer services' industry, as defined by the Bureau of Labor Statistics." --- National Academy of Sciences; Committee on WorkForce Needs in Information Technology; Computer Science & TeleCommunications Board; Board on Testing & Assessment; Board on Science, Technology & Economic Policy; Office of Scientific & Engineering Personnel; National Research Council 2001 "Characterizing the WorkForce Problem"

"Rising compensation attracts into a field more people who are willing to work (increasing the current supply), decreases demand for those workers, & signals to those capable of being trained to begin studying for these jobs (increasing the future supply of new entrants)... To the extent that compensation does not rise, the signal is not sent to labor market entrants, & thus the potential labor force for these occupations is sparser than it would otherwise be. Potential workers seeing rising compensation in IT will move preferentially into the IT field by preparing themselves by education (in the case of students selecting courses of study) or by retraining in the appropriate disciplines for IT work (in the case of workers in other occupations). Typically, the greater are the incentives provided by employers to induce workers into the occupation of interest, the quicker & greater will be the response by potential entrants." ---National Academy of Sciences; Committee on WorkForce Needs in Information Technology; Computer Science & TeleCommunications Board; Board on Testing & Assessment; Board on Science, Technology & Economic Policy; Office of Scientific & Engineering Personnel; National Research Council 2001 "Characterizing the WorkForce Problem" Building a WorkForce for the Information Economy alternate link (citing Richard B.

Instead, I wind up marveling at their ability. I mean, tbere are so many things they have to believe that simply aren't true and to doubt so many other things that are factual. For openers, they're required to believe that [the USA] is not only not superior to other nations, but is in agreat many ways inferior. They have to accept that whereas those who espouse the values of Christianity and Judaism are bigots, whereas those who pray to Allah are noble in their natures and their spiritual aspirations..."

the 2012-09-11 Muslim terrorist attack on the USA consulate in Benghazi, and the Obummer/Clinton refusal to improve security in the months leading up to it, their failure to activate defense forces, and their attempts to divert, deceive, and cover up the details are not going away
"...the congressional hearings stopped far short of placing the blame for the murder of 4 Americans, including a United States ambassador who had all but fallen on his knees to beg for additional security. To my knowledge, the sub-poena list did not include any of the survivors of the attack, any military personnel familiar with the area and the military assets close enough to send help, and there were several. If you doubt, check it out for yourself on a map... The truth is that of all the attacks I'm aware of that have been carried out against Americans, there was not a siege that lasted for over 13 hours and whoever was in the Oval Office did not even [seem to] lift a finger to help. They did not let the security forces at the embassy in Tripoli make the trip, although they were saddled up and ready to go to the point of loading into vehicles, and as the story goes, being told to stand down..."

In general, however, the industry is highly dependent on the local labor supply.

"...Later he noted that when he and Carson were boys, 'governments, whether federal, state, or local, were only taking about 15 cents out of every dollar earned. Today they're taking almost half...' It's gotten worse. Depending on where you live, the combined total of government taxes can exceed 50%, including income, sales and hidden taxes. According to the Tax Foundation, the nation's leading independent tax policy non-profit, Americans this year will pay $3.5T in federal taxes and $1.6T in state and local taxes, for a total of $5.1T, or 31% of the nation's income. Still, governments never have enough of our money. The feds borrow from other governments and the national debt approaches $20T... Reagan added, 'The biggest problem is that we have built a permanent structure of government -- federal, state and local -- they're permanent employees. And they've come to the place where they actually determine policy in this country more than does the congress...' At the time, Reagan said there were 14.5M public employees in the USA. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, as of 2015, there were nearly 22M government [employees]... As the 1975 Reagan interview demonstrates, the problems haven't changed because the solutions have not been embraced..."

'By the late 1980s, GPAs were rising at a rate of 0.1 points per decade (see top chart), a rate one-fourth of that experienced during the VietNam era...'..."

"If we go back to the beginning of the 20th century, before government intervention became pervasive in housing markets, we find people paying a smaller percentage of their incomes for housing than at the end of that century. Even though real incomes at the beginning of the 20th century were only a fraction of what they were at the end, a smaller percentage of those smaller incomes was sufficient to cover housing costs. Back then, the rule of thumb was that housing costs -- whether rents or mortgage payments -- should not take more than one-fourth of a person's income. In 1901, housing costs took 23% of the average American's income. By 2003, it took 33% of a far larger income. In California, where government interventions in housing markets have been especially pervasive, the proportion of income required for housing has increased even more steeply... 'Data from the 1970 census shows that a median-income Bay Area family could dedicate a quarter of their income to housing and pay off their mortgage on a median-priced home in just 13 years. By 1980, a family had to spend 40% of their income to pay off a home mortgage in 30 years; today, it requires 50%.'" --- Thomas Sowell 2008 _Economic Facts & Fallacies_ pp23-24 (citing Patrick McGeeham 2006-05-20 _NY Times_ "After a Century, Room and Board in City Still Sting" pgA1; Randal O'Toole 2006-05-22 _San Francisco CA Chronicle_ "The High Price of Land-Use Planning" pgB7) |

the unclean Muslim terrorist attack on the Temple Mount gives a view of the Palestinian outrage factory
"...[Mahmoud Abbas] was forceful in his condemnation of the act, noting that there is no room for violence in such a holy place. Other members of his party, Fatah, were also quick to denounce. And Ayman Odeh, the head of Israel's largest Arab political party, condemned all armed struggle from Israeli Arabs against Israel in the wake of the attack. That's pretty good. But by Monday the old patterns emerged. Fatah called this week for a 'day of rage'. Was this to protest the gunmen who entered the noble sanctuary or those mourning their deaths? No. This protest is aimed at Israel for erecting metal detectors at the entrance of the Temple Mount compound after the shootings. The most telling response, however, came from Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated group that rules Gaza=Palestine. A spokesman for the group, Sami Abu Zuhi, said on Friday the attack 'was a natural response to Israeli terrorism and their defilement of the al-Aqsa mosque'. Now there are many things one can say about Hamas. They are killers, of course. They are also fanatics. Hamas favors the imposition of Islamic law on the people of Gaza=Palestine... In light of the group's response to shootings at the mosque, let's add a new descriptor: frauds. Yes, how can any thinking person take the professed pieties of Hamas leaders seriously if they rail against 'defilement' of the site yet praises [terrorist -- initiators of force] who fled to it in a shooting spree? As Martin Kramer, a historian at Shalem College in Jerusalem, told me this week, the attack at the Temple Mount broke a taboo. 'The usual Islamist claim is the danger to the mosque and the shrine is from Jews.', he said. 'Here there was an actual conspiracy to smuggle weapons into this holy place and Hamas does not condemn it, they praise it. Who poses the greater danger to al-Aqsa?' It's an excellent question. The answer is that the greater danger to one of Islam's [3rd] holiest place these days comes from the Palestinian fanatics who claim to be fighting for its reclamation."

"Among those students who gaduate from college owing a debt for their education, the median debt is $19,300... it is by no means certain that the average [tax-victim] makes more money than the average college graduate, so the case for forcing [tax-victims] to subsidize people with better economic prospects than themselves cannot invoke the usual arguments about helping the less fortunate." --- Thomas Sowell 2008 _Economic Facts & Fallacies_ pg108 (citing College Board 2006 _Trends in Student Aid_ pg12) |

"In 1975, 37% of college and university faculty were full-time, tenured faculty members and an additional 20% were full-time faculty members who were on the tenure track. In short, tenure was the rule, with more than half the faculty having either already achieved tenure or being in positions such as assistant professor, where tenure was a prospect. By 2003, however, only 35% of all faculty were in either tenue or tenure-track positions, while 46% were part-time, non-tenure positions and an additional 19% were in full-time, non-tenure positions... in Illinois, the College of DuPage, adjunct faculty out-numbered full-timne faculty by more than 3 to 1. At a profit-making institution like the University of Phoenix, nearly all the faculty are part-time." --- Thomas Sowell 2008 _Economic Facts & Fallacies_ pp114, 115 (citing John Gravois 2006-12-15 _Chronicle of Higher Education_ "Tracking the Invisible Faculty" ppA8, A9) |

"These include such Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs) [a kind of quasi-non-governmental organization (quango)] as the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the Legal Services Corporation, and the National Passenger RailRoad Corporation. One important form of quasi is the Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC), a type of private entity 'organized' at the government's initiative to provide contract services to the government. The oldest and best-known FFRDC is the Rand Corporation, created in 1948 to undertake research for the USA military. Possibly USA's most important quasis are the several GSEs that play key roles in the nation's financial services industry. The best known of these GSEs are Fannie Mae (the Federal National Mortgage Corporation) and Freddie Mac (the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation). The others are the Student Loan Marketing Association, known as Sallie Mae, the Farm Credit System (FCS), the Federal Home Loan Bank System (FHLBS) and the Federal Agricultural Credit Corporation (Farmer Mac). The GSEs are among the nation's largest banking institutions, collectively controlling assets of nearly $3T. Fannie Mae alone is currently the nation's 26th largest business enterprise in terms of revenues and ranks 3rd in total assets. Each of these 6 GSEs was originally established [allegedly] to overcome perceived flaws in credit markets. The Farm Credit System, for example was 'organized' in 1916 to enhance the availability of credit in rural areas, which were then isolated from the nation's financial centers. Fannie Mae was chartered in 1938 as part of an effort to create a secondary [crony socialist] market for residential mortgages, thus encouraging financially weak, Depression-era banks to make loans available to home purchasers [and make them politically beholden]. Fannie Mae was a wholly owned government corporation until 1968 when it was converted into a GSE. Sallie Mae was established in 1972 to increase the supply of tuition loans to college students [to encourage them to hold off from entry to job markets, get draft deferments... and make them politically beholden], a market that many commercial banks had avoided [due to lack of financial/credit history]. Today, rather than compensate for perceived market failures, the GSEs operate to provide off-budget subsidies to specific groups favored by congress. Though there are individual variations, the financial services GSEs operate in similar ways. To begin with, GSEs raise money in the credit markets by issuing bonds and mortgage-backed securities [MBSs]. In principle, GSE bonds and securities, unlike Treasury and other government bonds, are not backed by the formal promise of the USA government to re-pay investors. Because of the GSEs' quasi-governmental standing, however, investors treat their securities as though they were backed by the full faith and credit of the USA government. This perception allows the GSEs to borrow money at a rate only slightly higher than that paid by the USA Treasury itself and substantially below the rate paid by commercial institutions. GSEs also benefit from exemption from state and local taxes and from a variety of other valuable privileges normally enjoyed by federal agencies. According to former Federal Reserve Board chairman Alan Greenspan, lower borrowing costs and tax exemptions are worth $6G per year to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac alone. The GSEs use the funds that they borrow to make loans to private lending institutions that issue mortgages to home buyers, credit to farmers, and tuition loans to college students. These institutions borrow from the GSEs at a rate higher than the GSEs' cost of funds, and the profit generated by this difference has provided a comfortable return for the GSEs and their investors. Fannie Mae, for example, [got] a 25% return on equity in 1998, while Freddie Mac [got] nearly 23%. The GSEs also provide primary lenders with a secondary market for their loan portfolios, further encouraging them to extend credit to borrowers. By the end of 1999, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac together owned single-family mortgage loans worth nearly $550G and representing 47% of all 'conventional' single-family mortgages in the USA... the GSEs are primarily responsible to their share-owners, not the government, and they regard the president, congress, and regulatory agencies as interlopers in thier affairs. The president appoints a minority block of directors to each GSE's board -- 5 of 18 directors in the case of Fannie Mae... Where public directors have sought to question a government corporation's practices, they have often been frozen out of decision-making processes and, in some instances, not even notified of board and committee meetings... Federal regulatory agencies have limited statutory power over the GSEs and often find themselves politically unable to exercise the few powers they possess. Hence, when it was discovered that the GSEs had engaged [at the direct urging of congress] in risky practices that contributed to the nation's 2007-2008 financial crisis, federal regulators seemed surprised and mystified [but did they get SAG awards or Oscars?]. In 2014, an effort by congressional Republicans to dismantle Fannie and Freddie floundered in the face of [weak leadership, lack of majorities in both houses and] opposition from the nation's housing industry. The industry [executives] feared a loss of liquidity in the mortgage market." --- Jennifer Bachner, Benjamin Ginsberg, Steven L.
