In a 2005 report, the Duke researchers concluded that the United States produced 137,437 engineers with at least a bachelor's degree in the most recent year, while India produced 112,000 and China 351,537. "That's more U.S. degrees per million residents than in either other nation," Bracey said in The Washington Post. Yet he found the discredited numbers still presented as fact by Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings, Secretary of Commerce Carlos M. Gutierrez, and Senator John W. Warner (R.-Va.).
