that may be so, but i, sir, am also a chemical engineer with a BSc in biology, squaring me between science and engineering (though i don't work in either field). i read an article in the AIChE quarterly to the effect of my 'rants' last year. here's something quick about that which i found online, no doubt sourcing the same job outlook stats...yes.
i would further define 'we' as industry and research science in the united states which is demanding less engineers and scientists year-on-year, despite an acceleration of research dividends. the functions of engineering and research science are less and less labor intensive as indicated by these trends.
republicans, democrats and religion has nothing to do with that, does it?
You sir, are an idiot.

Little or no growth in employment of chemical engineers is expected though 2012. Although overall employment in the chemical manufacturing industry is expected to decline, chemical companies will continue to research and develop new chemicals and more efficient processes to increase output of existing chemicals. Among manufacturing industries, pharmaceuticals may provide the best opportunities for jobseekers. Many of the jobs for chemical engineers, however, will be in nonmanufacturing industries, especially services industries such as research and testing services. Even though no new jobs due to growth are expected to be created, many openings will result from the need to replace chemical engineers who transfer to other occupations or leave the labor force.
i'm sure this varies by trade, however, invariably, the role of automation in monitoring, design and research has adversely affected the human component of virtually any occupation. as technology builds by way of exponents, this will increase, leaving engineering and science no quarter.
back to being an idiot, are you a blind idiot in the face of the implications that technology has on employment?
Did I call you an idiot? I'm sorry. You have a degree in Chemistry and Biology, but can't find a job in either? No, you're not an idiot. You're a lying idiot or possibly something as simple as a "fool". Good luck. Learn how to write a resume.
