The Great Lie - Education Will Save Us (Huffpo) J. Tasini

[Manifestor_of_Light]

(snip) Over and over again, the people of our country hear that the solution to inadequate wages, disappearing heath care, vanishing pensions, and staggering personal debt is quite simple: get educated. It may sound right but it's utterly phony.

Hardly a day goes by when politicians or pundits don't slip in a plug for a "smarter" workforce.(snip)

He's talking about the destruction of the educated middle class. Kids don't go into science and technology because America doesn't spend money on R&D so we have lots of unemployed scientists.


They say that the sectors of the economy with jobs are things that can't be outsourced, like law.
Well I have an A.A.S., a B.A. and a J.D. and I think they are lying. (My editorial comment)
