I'll ask you again, what percentage of the US working-force do you believe possesses the mental capacity to perform in a higher paying industry such as IT?

I have no idea. IT was just an example. What do you call a "significant percentage"? There are plenty of trades like plumbing, electricians, HVAC, sanitation, welding that the majority of people have the mental capacity to learn.

I agree 100%. Trump was trying to toughen up visa renewals last time I checked, but not sure what became of that.

Those trades will mostly be gone in 20 years, automation is much further along than we give it credit for. Robots are making and repairing robots now, it won't be much longer before they move to creation rather than just repetition.
