Hubby was desperately seeking engineers with the ability to actually engineer. They’ve become sparse. After months, he has finally hired two who had proper educations.

The real danger to the country is the destruction, for the past three generations, of the public education system. It is pumping out ignorant fools who hate their own country and have tons of self esteem and little else to offer an employer.

This whole-country, metastatic cancer must be slashed and burned.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Please read post #40.

The destruction of our education system began the very first day that modern government schools opened in the mid-1800s to early 1900s.

Our modern government schools are NOT NOT BROKEN! They are doing EXACTLY what Horace Mann and John Dewey and the other “progressives” intended!

The destruction of education *begins* with hiring quotas — they destroy the incentive for doing well in school. Add to that the near-total destruction of industrial jobs, AND the widespread employment of illegal aliens, and the value of a good education (even where such is available) is degraded to near-nothing.

And you’re right of course, the public schools are a disaster.
