WRONG
Trump should NOT create any government ‘training’ programs.
Give incentives to industries that have their own training programs (make 100% of ANY education tax deductible) but create no new government program
Am I the only one who remembers the waste of money known as CETA?
you can’t really focus on a new program to train America’s workforce while the leftist educational-industrial complex debt-fed bubble is still in place.
I have seen so many help-wanted signs recently.
Much more enjoyable to see than the ‘business closing’ signs during Odumbass’s terms
It later became the Job Training Partnership Administration.
Anyone else have mixed feelings about Ivanka being involved? I’m sure DJT trusts her and she’s apparently competent, but still...
Basic math and communication skills will land a young person a good entry level job.
Not create...but encourage. One thing the Germans do well is internships. Not sure what the rules are but it works...somehow. Combine that with upward mobility and who knows...maybe Reverend Al and the Rehvarund Jacksssson will go eventually go out of business?
Yep. ALL of these ‘First Daughters’ need to shut up and sit down - or concentrate on their own charitable work.
You know, like Chelsea does for HER Mom and Step Dad. ;)
Chelsea, the Obama and Bush daughters and Amy Carter, unlike Ivanka Trump, have never made a real dollar in their lives. Ivanka is a self-made billionaire. Big difference.
Wasting time in leftist run “colleges” is a shame.and is at your expense because we aren’t ever going to pay for your indoctrination which will cost you at least 100k. We will never pay for that.
I guess you missed that my comment was sarcasm. :(
Put Mike Rowe in charge. He has been pushing this for years. Has recently teamed up with “ This old House” to push the building trade
We can all get jobs hosting Shark Week. No skills necessary.
THIS 👆🏻
The core of the problem is the EJAKASHUN DEPAHTMINT.
I grew up in an era where most cities had a “TRADE SCHOOL”, believe it or not, one for the BOYS and one for the GIRLS.
Those TRADE schools turned out the future plumbers, electricians, mechanics, carpenters, machinists and the others who built, maintained and repaired this country. These Trade schoolers were the ones who kept the machinery of the WWII military running, floating, and flying. No longer.
Today youth is brainscrubbed to GO To collEGE and learn something. Not “DO something” but “learn something?”
Thus future workers have NO marketable skills. Except for those lucky enough to be attending “TECHNICAL HIGH SCHOOLS.
Most of those “high school grads” have jobs BEFORE they are handed their diploma, snapped up by companies searching for those who CAN DO.
Note to the POTUS: Enlist Mike Rowe. :-)
If that were indeed true wages would be going up sharply. Alas, they are not. This is BS. But still training is needed and always a good thing.
The best incentive for training is HIGHER wages.
For the past 30 years employers have been abusing the glut of baby boomers in the job market, plus the importation of workers through H-1B has meant they always have had the upper hand. Now that things are evening out they panic, F them all.
