If Elon Musk is correct about the U.S. having a Labor Shortage, then how does he explain this? "Most studies indicate that 75-85% of adults with Asperger Syndrome do not hold a full-time job."

Let’s attack Elon Musk, because just having the Left, the Democrats and their Gaslight Media attacking him isn’t enough.

Weird argument. Is the author trying to imply all people with Aspergers are good high-tech workers?

There might be some correlation.

Very weird argument. It seems more of an argument to work to bring Aspergers into the workforce.

I don’t have a problem with Musk’s and Ramaswamy’s position that importing the best people in the world, if they are truly the best available, is good for the US.

The problem I have is the manipulation of the education system to downgrade the skills of Americans so they can never be the best and have fair chance at these jobs as well.
