If we expect to have a society in the future that is civil. then we need a mandatory 'STAY IN SCHOOL" or be sent to a farm labor program UNTIL THE AGE OF 18. !!!!!
BY ONE MEANS OR THE OTHER, "INDIVIDUALS WILL LEARN SOMETHING".
Next guideline we need is: Any girl that get's pregnant, cannot get benefits, until she "disclose the name of the father". !!!! If he is not working, then he will be assigned to some public service duty, and a portion of what would go to the girl, is used to pay him for the labor, and that portion is then paid to the girl and her baby.
If he fails to work this program, then he is sent to the Penal Farm, where again what ever he produces which can generate income, goes to the girl and the baby.
For the girl, if she does not do everything she can to try and make the relationship work, then her benefits will get cut. ( none of this stuff of girls just using the boys to make babies so she can get free checks).
Sounds like an indentured servant, I think we need to teach how to live in society and how it works versus hard labor. I always found it silly how we don't teach kids about credit, saving, how to work, paying bills, etc but we shove useless knowledge down their throat and then throw them into college with debt and no idea how to survive.
I'm not advocating the concept of indentured servitude in that sense. but a matter of responsibility.
We need a society to understand that freedom is responsibility, the more responsible one is, the more free they are. Because they have options and choices which become positives in their lives.
I have long advocated for 'vocational and technical training programs. I think this area would thrive if it made a volume of these programs available at reasonable cost.
We don't have the community structure in this city to try and promote college as if it is he only answer.
For many people, college is not the answer, that old delusion of go to college, and buy your way to a desk and high pay and give orders to others, has long faded away. American does not have industry to support that delusion.
But we have many needs for vocational and technical trained people. They will over time continue to push their aims of learning but they also will have usable skills.
America was crashed by people claiming degree's, because that is what professors teach. How to bleed the system while avoiding to make timely decision and how to play kiss up and shut up.
I do care for the sciences, medicine, and functional things as such. but all these people who come out talking about financial specialist, are taught to play the Ponzi Game, Chase over inflated and over valued stock and ride it till it crashes. They are like parasite, who slowly erode the viability and value companies could attain. By over valuing them, over leveraging and over stock and over expanding, until all the brokers, traders, banks, lawyers and financial analysis profit from it, and then "kaboom", collapse.
You go into a bank if you make sizable deposits, the first thing they want you to do is talk to their financial people. The first thing one should avoid is their financial people. If you make money, one should learn about investing before turning your money over to these people and watching them get rich while you end up loosing a % of your principal.
We need more skilled people who are proficient in knowing how to do things, fix, things, build and make things, and people who take up vocations where they can actually do good in the works they do.
This delusion pushed in so many kids heads, that after 4 yrs, they will instantly be a genius, or they have suddenly been transformed into a guru... is a madness that eroded and ultimately led to havoc in the workplace, and over time, we've seen every industry face turmoil, worker discontent and ultimately collapse.
It was not done by the people doing the actual production, it was done by the people doing the administration. these are often the people who rode a degree into the position, instead of working in the industry, learning the industry and earning their way up by working within the system of the industry.
Today, we have people in positions, who simply can't make decisions, some are so afraid or egotistical, until they want to stagnate operations, as their claim to creating a safety net for themselves, where they can't be held accountable. as a result things erode, nothing gets done and they just follow the script with aims of 'keeping themselves in a safety zone"... all the while they do more damage than if they made a bad decision and walked away from it. But if they had made a poor decisions and stood up and put in effort to correct it, they may well benefit the operations and prosper the business.
Most of these types are micro managers, who have to control everything, and the greater their ego and fear is the more they micromanage. Most of them are blind of their manner and ways.
I think Vocation and Technical Training will benefit people very well.
Teaching about the true responsibility of child rearing is also very important, and certainly teaching financial responsibility is important.
Currently:
Something has to change and something has to push the concerns for responsibility. Sadly, sometimes the choices are hard and the means may appear hardened.
but if someone has a better solution, by all means put it forth.
You can teach your child how to make make a good living, even how to make much money, yet if they're not taught good morals, you will be in for many headaches. And the best place to be taught good morals is in a good church.

We've got to may Enron's.
Financial people who are out to get your money, & they know how to squeeze it all out of you.
Amazes me at the people who will sign over their money to people they do not know, them complain about losing it.
My wife's 1st cousin lost many dollars in the Enron deal. Never will forget Mr. Lay saying to this country, "I'm an honest man, never cheated no one!"
People fade away and don't talk when they can't dominate. It appears they are less concerned about being engaging and expounding to explore subject matter. Therefore the dialog ceases and stagnation is dominant.
It's quite representive of the demeanor that has devastated this city and its regional expanse.
We become the blame for what does not prosper, as well as we are the culprit who promotes non interactive exploration of subject and discussions.
It's quite amazing. Apathy dominates in a region where it calls itself, "The Bible Belt"... its simply Astounding!!!!!
I've tried in many areas to talk to people about subject matter of a variety of things, both social, financial and community based economically important things. I'm amazed at the lack of concern, the limited investement in pursuing to think in progressive and creative terms. Thus, what I continue to see is 'buzz word" drama, that fades into self defeat.
Situation upon situations, the recent artice which said American Youth rank 9th in basic Financial Literarcy, where as Chinese Youth excell as the number 1 in awareness of financial literacy. That in and of itself is an Atrocity.
If the youth lag in 9th, then the Adult must be 20th, or they would be teaching the youth. We watch as many foreign nations of Asian have people who are "enterprising", they have the concept to manage their resources, invest them and work their investments to become family business, to conglomerates. What we do is decline, wating for a Multi-National company to come and provide us something.
We've lost the creative edge. We want leisure, we get caught up in things like facebook, and twitter and taking pictures and the obsessive consumption with texting, to the point we are killing each other on the streets, trying to text and drive.
We rush to the Wal Mart, just to spend money, we have no true need for the items, but we are thrilled at the packaging and the labels. While we support the further decline of America potential to be an industrial system who can and will rebuild industry. Instead, we accept cheap low quality, we even pursue it to the point, not moment in a 24 hr span can you not find Wal Mart parking lots saturated with shoppers.
We have become a 'Dollar Store Chasing Society", then we complain that we have no jobs.
We sit back and hail the greed of CEO's as they continue to sell America down the tubes for a bonus and overpaying themselves as they outsources everything which supports a community.
Now, we sit idle while the Bankers, use the same scheme of lure and devour, but this time they are doing it with selling automobiles to people who can ill afford them. we have lost all sense of value of and become void of valuation and quality in what we purchase. If it is shiny and brightly painted, we buy it. If it has a delusional discount tag on it, we buy it.
We have no concept of quality, for in we did, we'd be a nation which once again built quality things. We now buy 'disposable things", therefore, we have no repair mentality, therefore we have wiped out a whole segment of employment. Yet, we don't even know it.
There is nothing that is repaired anymore. Yet, our landfills are filling up, our ground water contaminated, and we even store this stuff in storage facilities and pay to do so. Knowing it has no longer term benefit, as it quickly deterioates, and result to us paying to store junk.
Wake-up time, but it appears our sleep is too deep... that we can't awaken......
We just love to pick out people to blame for our problems, or the problems that surround us, & it seems your very good at pointing, but the problem in this Unites States is the rejection of Jesus. ¶ Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD....."

Reason: misspelled word
Biblical History and Present Day History has always identified many who bring harm and dismay to the world. Yes, We have forgot that a power far higher than many is the ultimate to value. Yet, we live in a world where, wrath, avarice, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony, dominates and divides. We cannot over-look this reality. It is of the world and within and about the world in which we live.
We do not teach in our University anything remotely close to avoidance of these things. Our educational system has strayed from teaching principles for the sake of good of mankind, and it is now about a bottom line that feeds greed, driven by Avarice.
Jesus is only used by some business as a lure, when they use the pretense of God Driven Essence, when thier aim is profit by what ever means they devise.
If truth is not taught in the hearts of the young, then the minds of the young adults will become tainted, and like the procession goes, we then fill the world with older individuals driven by the seven deadly sins.
People don't want to learn of the world they live, and to think in pagan terms many forget that the works of man is to be steadfast in faith but live within the world, with aims and effort to do good and be of good.
None lives without the works of self, lest they become both thief and criminal. God gave man the ability to do good works, that he may do good works that benefit all mankind in the growth of service and spirit, both for and to mankind in the honor of Gods truths of mans creation.
Be not lost in vanity or paganism, but know; prayer are works engaged as well as those hoped for and desired, to bring about good, to sustain good and to promote good, these things are done in honor to appreciate the graces Gods gives unto us through the blessing of Life.
We just love to pick out people to blame for our problems, or the problems that surround us, & it seems your very good at pointing, but the problem in this Unites States is the rejection of Jesus. ¶ Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD....."
Oh please, the problem has nothing to do with Jesus.
