The Biden tour to sell the “COVID Relief” is named the “Help Is Here Tour.” I’m surprised they didn’t use the full name, “We’re From the Government and We Are Here to Help” tour.

More head start BS. I bet there won’t be free pre-k in the high income town I live in.

Maybe I should start one.

There’s only so much you can stock up on. Dry cereals, canned goods, dry beans, rice and jerky only takes you so far before you want fresh milk, eggs, steak, hamburger, bread, butter, fruit and vegetables.

There isn’t much you can do to prep for hyperinflation.

Yeah, free community college is only going to worsen the shortage of good people in the trades.

We obviously don’t have enough wokesters telling us what evil white supremacists we are chock full of white privilege. There seems to be a huge demand for graduates in “studies” that will fill that need.

You’ve apparently never heard of MREs and freeze-dried food?

But I will say this. In the UK....they don’t have “Core Curriculum”. They go to college for 3 years and study nothing but their major.

——-
Tell me about it. The college I teach in the Bay Area has an Associates of Applied Science in Games Programming.

Out of the 64 semester hours, 25% are liberal arts classes.

While in Singapore (Diploma is the same as our AA/AS/AAS) 200% of the classes were Games Programming. The top-up Bachelor Degree was likewise 100% Games Programming

Five or Ten or Twenty years on that stuff? Thanks, I’ll pass.

A devastating inflationary environment doesn’t end after a month or two. It takes years or a decade or more. Can you eat MREs that long? You’ll probably die of ricketts or beri-beri.

Maybe it wouldn’t be too bad if the community colleges taught kids how to be electricians, plumbers, welders and such. We have an abundance of kids out there that aren’t really cut out for advanced college courses but there is a need for skilled tradesmen/women and I think I’d rather have them get a good paying skill than end up turning to heroin and/or communism.
———-
Hint: there equal number of kids not cut out for manual labor, skilled or not.

I nearly failed high school in the mid-80s due these industrial arts classes. No interest even at 15 to do any manual labor.

Er 100%, not 200% but you get the idea. No liberal arts bullshit.
