        Because they refuse to hire people over a certain age. They are the ones that have the skills. They also are not willing to pay for skills.

        Need more emphasis on small business development to provide training. Small businesses are dying off b/c of overregulation and Ocare.

        There is no #SkillsGap. It is a myth propagated by those who want to flood market with cheap foreign labor. #H1B and #H2B visas.

        Where do you get data on these supposed open jobs, @SecretaryAcosta? Anti-american worker @USChamber? So many open jobs, why wages so flat?

        Apprenticeships & trade skills education should start as early as 8th or 9th grade. We're failing our youth & falling behind many countries!

        #SkillsGap is over-exaggerated. Market is flooded with #H1B, #H2B visa workers and 1000s of good jobs are sent overseas.

        They are not going to do that. These are all nice slogans. It is much cheaper to hire overseas. Profit is always #1 priority for corps.

        Unfortunately, they will and they are profiting immensely. Quality is not a concern as almost all companies doing that so customers stuck.

        Working with the Anti-American Chamber isn't going to get you far. Have the employees tweet job openings the west coast wants to move.

        More money, big Government will not lead to adequate competitive education. School vouchers, school choice will. An educational Renaissance!
