Very good piece. Really gets to heart of the matter.

This American Families First plan bears repeating (I repeat the author with some minor editing to lend itself to a bullet list):

* Ending the marriage penalties in America’s welfare system

* Making America’s safety net less tied to household income and causing the safety net to be more compassionate to two-parent families and Americans with disabled children.

* Reforming state-level foster care and child-support systems and policies to emphasize the importance of two-parent families and stability in a child’s life.

* Reducing the flow of low-skilled immigrants into the United States. (An influx of working-class people has a short-term effect on working-class wages, and a steady flow of blue-collar workers might suppress working-class wages in the long term).

* Reforming higher education and student loans, including forcing colleges to have more skin in the game with the degrees they offer

* Launching a new alternative path of apprenticeships and technical education to directly compete with the four-year degree.

I keep wanting to emphasize one or the other but end up just emphasizing them all.

And every single one of these will be called “racist.”

And ask Larry Arnn to develop curriculum of Americanism, rhetoric, American government, and American history for all county superintendents. Screw the state education boards....they have failed. Then push it to the charter schools for parents who want their kids to be educated.

And screw our do-nothing education secretary. I’d trade her for her brother.

Push it to the county. Where people have rifles. They will listen then. Motherflowers.

Doesn’t a shift toward economic interventionism directly contradict a core tenant of the Republican Party?

**************

LOL. There are NO core tenants in the Republican Party. Its a party devoid of any convictions, principles or beliefs.

Bringing back heavy industry and manufacturing to the United States,

If big business were to bring manufacturing back, they would likely do it with robotics.
