What could we do to produce educated techies in these low cost areas?

It seems like a USA specific problem because from my understanding low cost areas in much poorer countries produce many highly skilled educated techies. What are they doing differently from the US?



Here's an idea, better education?

Replace the Bible with a science textbook.


There's plenty of science textbooks in our public schooling from what I've seen.


Not enough apparently, else you wouldn't see Texan schools debate about creationism vs evolution.


Those areas are producing educated techies. Those record them move to better areas.
