Yes it seems odd.
Out sourcing construction jobs was great for the economy while leaving entire cities in rubbles.
But as soon as it hits the privileged class there is a call to "provide a specific replacement mechanism".
You mean manufacturing
Yes
Whose privilege are you sticking up for here in effect?
Math researchers are privileged class? I can guarantee - construction workers are extremely rich compared with math phds and most of postdocs. Talking about privileged class is absolutely laughable here.
I would bet that the parents of math PhDs are generally more privileged than the parents of construction workers.
