...but for WHAT JOBS? It cracks me up to hear idiot politicians (of any stripe) babbling about spending money on "job training" in the US.
FOR
WHAT
JOBS?
There ARE no jobs out there that require training. LACK OF EDUCATION / TRAINING ISN'T THE PROBLEM. The PROBLEM is that all our jobs have been sent ELSEWHERE - and I notice NO ONE is doing anything about THAT.
WHAT PLANET does our gov't live on? Job training? It's a ruse, a distraction, and as useless as a PLUG NICKEL. It's a "see we're doing something to help you!" ruse -- when they're really NOT because they're TOO TIMID and LACKING IN INTEGRITY OR MORALS TO REALLY DO ANYTHING TO HELP AMERICAN WORKERS. They are OWNED by the corprats who buy the cheap labor - ELSEWHERE. And they're not about to do anything to upset that status quo. No matter WHAT it costs American workers or the US economy.
It would be NICE if they would get a REALITY CHECK before spending tons of money on one that DOESN'T EXIST in an effort to convince us that THEIR reality is THE reality. IT ISN'T.
Spending stimulus money on JOB TRAINING is a WASTE. It would be better spent on STOPPING CORPORATIONS FROM SENDING US JOBS TO INDIA, CHINA AND MEXICO -- than on "job training" for jobs that DON'T EXIST.
The utter stupidity, nefariousness, and FUTILITY of the whole thing is mind-boggling. Ugh!
