+1. That being said, I think there are places where government can add value such as education. The current system doesn't work too well, but that's because it's so centralized. Further the gov't should be driving requirements. For example, in MI they are requiring students to take multiple languages and many schools are offering Chinese. On the surface this seems like a good idea, but if the Chinese speaking student has no idea about the job market, how to market themselves, how to finance an education and WHAT to finance, then the Chinese is worthless. Gov't should be pulling reins back to focus on daily skills and the job market. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:197007 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
