_______________________________________________________
In my oppinion the above article is a good and balanced set of explanations of the
situation, and , sad to say, many of the cases are here too. (Except native
americans). On the other hand there is also here a nativ, nomadic part of the
population in the north living of reindeers, although many, if not all nowdays live in
perment dwellings the time of the year when it's to harsh a weather to live in the old
ways.
The problem of making some people to see how important education is, is another common
problem. We have here a saying: You can leed the horse to the water, but you can not
force it to drink. I would like to add: But you must never give up trying. And the
mental disorded have sadly enough got the same treatment here. How can they set out
mentally retarded people to live and handle a living by themselves. To take care of a
small appartement, pay the rent and so on without even to remember what day it is.
The, of course, there are allways those who are not in any mental trouble, but never
the less fail to indulge any education over the minimum standard. Could the folowing
be a sugestion for solving this problem?
This said, I would therefore like to add another item: In the old days there always
was simple, but honest jobbs in the industrial sector to obtain for those that in the
young and disorded years missed their chance to a higher education. To day, with all
this outsorcing going on, those jobbs seem to be much less frequent on the market in
both USA and in Europe. Should this be going on to the extent that it leaves a lot of
people out of work when the corporations would have work to offer in their homeland if
they were not exported?

I'm aware that this kind of question has a lot of both political, industialized contra
third world and economical implications. Shouldn't this kind of actions be kept within
balance for the best of the country?
