There are large swaths of the U.S. that would look like a Mad Max no-go zone if not for the only employers to channel money through; taxpayer-funded grammar schools and high schools, possibly a regional hospital, and possibly a college.
Someone's got to keep the landlords, car loan and mortgage financiers, and medical industry in business.
The government also gains when students get useless degrees because those graduates are likely to end up being teachers which are needed to continue the cycle of forcing taxpayers to subsidize non-viable areas.
Yep —> “...those graduates are likely to end up being teachers which are needed to continue the cycle of forcing taxpayers to subsidize non-viable areas.”
But far worse than just “non-viable.” Continue the cycle of all the destructive DEI, not-for-profits, BLM, antifa, civil unrest, etc. Those people are dedicated to our destruction. That’s what galls me — we pay to train these useless leeches to destroy us.
