We throw a gigantic sum of money (local, state and federal) at the educational establishment and we don't turn out local graduates with the skills that our remnant industries need to compete in the new economy/new world order? What's going on?

[grey_whiskers]

The money is thrown at the "womyn's studies" and "GLBTQ" (gay-lesbian-bisexual-transgendered-questionable) and "Ethnic Grievance" (Jeremiah Wright) and Ward Churchill programs, not at Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Engineering.

Which is just as well, since the powers that be have moved all of the technical jobs to the Third World anyway in order to rake in enough $$ from the short-term savings to move up the scale at The Emperor's Club from Kristin (Three Diamonds) to Maya (Six or Seven Diamonds).

In the meantime, Dell, who helped pioneer this crap, is having to cut thousands of US jobs since nobody wants their non-quality-tested, commoditized crap backed by arrogant tech support who cannot speak English anymore.

Is the long-overdue flight to quality coming?

Cheers!

The reason why is our kids aren’t taught how to think or how to compete, but rather, they’re taught “how to feel good” about themselves.
