Good. There’s a lot of young males that are being told “if you don’t go to college, you’ve got no future.”

There needs to be a path for tradesmen to grab them and say, “If you graduate high school, there’s a great job waiting for you.”|

Many are not being allowed into college in the first place, and they’re more likely to drop out because of systematic discrimination that awards women with more funding, period.

when I was in H.S. we had college prep program and a vocational program.

They had auto shop wood shop, electrical welding , foundry, machine shop and drafting. each student no matter their cirriculum were required to take some shop classes. That included the art students too.

That is all gone. The school is just college prep. Big mistake.

Not just a job or career, but many of the trades can lead to owning their own business. Plumbers, electricians, ETC. can realistically end up with their own company if they work hard. That is what the USA is supposed to be all about! MAGA Winning!
