The future lies in educating Americans, not to be angry about false injustice or an omnipresent state, but rather to build and teach the machines that will do the work that has burdened humanity since the first branch was shaped into a hunting implement.
Without young people trained and encouraged to do that sophisticated work, the locus of prosperity will permanently shift from America to Asia, where pragmatic leaders urge children to study engineering, not the superstitions peddled by pious academics and deceitful politicians.

Hell kids now cannot make change…
We need to get rid of tenure for teachers……
My wife was a first grade teacher….if you do not get it by second grade your done.
First and second grade teachers are the most important make sure your kids get the best in your school
Common Core has nothing to do with academic rigor.
But kids know how to put a condom on a banana, that has to count for something.
“.....Without young people trained and encouraged to do that sophisticated work, the locus of prosperity will permanently shift from America to Asia, where pragmatic leaders urge children to study engineering, not the superstitions peddled by pious academics and deceitful politicians.”
So..........how to convince the dumbed down masses to not only vote out the Left, but somehow toss off their ingrained desire for instant gratification, and wait through the couple of decades of angst for the resulting return to sanity? THAT’s the BIGGEE.
Another reason to kill the H-1B visa scam. Why would a student go into STEM when they graduate they have to compete with 125,000 imported H-1B visa scabs? Students aren’t stupid they get it. They see the sell out too and make decisions appropriately.
But FIRST, we must rid ourselves of politicians who sell out our country and citizens to the highest bidder. In so doing, they have wrecked out economy and employment markets, not to mention small business.
I would add corporate executives to that list too.
That must be why engineering jobs are the best-paid for undergraduates in the U.S. Oh, wait . . . .
Would say this discriminatory to just target STEM workers, what we need to import are visa holders to replace Free Trade a$$holes.
I make more than you and my Johnson is longer too.
H-1B ping!
Well thanks, I guess. I’m not willing to share photos. Find some other website.
Let’s bring in 19 million illegals from India....
Indians who write English well and are willing to work for ten bucks an hour in a newsrooms around the country. Then see if the wages for journalists goes down..
Anyone got questions?
heh heh
Journalist salaries have collapsed along with many other jobs. Major TV market jobs that used to pay hundreds of thousands now barely get to $100k. Writing has become little more than an ego exercise. Cable news and a few local jobs are still up there, but their days seem numbered too.
the lack of workers adequately trained for a more technologically demanding workplace is slowing growth
Horse puckey - America has plenty of technologically skilled people, but globalist corporations don't want to pay them what they're worth ... so they import H-1B Third World drones with fake credentials who contribute nothing to growth.
“...After pushing millions of unqualified students into universities through affirmative action and government loan programs, four in 10 graduates lack the complex reasoning skills needed for white-collar work, as it exists today...”
THIS is the real issue. I work at a university... and this observation cannot be TOO emphatically expressed.
Both of our political parties, and our media, are all on one side - selling out our own country.
Trump is right about US jobs.
He seems to be the only one saying what he is saying. Anywhere.
There will be a (big) change when he takes over. I think the markets are starting to react now, will more as he keeps the lead and everyone scrambles to be on the right side of things.
But I think it’s already started, to rebalance. Just a little bit, but it has started.
This will be an interesting year.
Common Core is to indoctrinate people. Not teach them anything. More good Communists accepting the breadlines and barbed wire.
Another Liberal lie.
