Trump is pushing Trade schools

I think this is a great Idea. It won't be long until no one can do anything for themselves, and
they will be forced to pay big bucks to the skilled individuals that can do things.

I grew up with a WWII dad that did everything himself. Built our garage himself, etc..I am not as skilled, but I have always
swapped out water heaters, plumbing fixtures, electrical stuff like putting in ceiling fans, etc...

I believe in the near future trades people are going to be very wealthy.

a 2 year college degree is worthless, plumbers, electricians carpenters make very good money,i live in nys, and factories are begging for good help, average cost to install a hot water tank is $400 1 hour profit,, it cost me $400 to snake a drain, 1 hour, trade are a good skill

@oldguy73 They have 2-year trade schools. My brother-in-law and his son both went for HVAC at one so they could get their contrator’s license and start their own business.

@oldguy73 One of the reasons why I supported Doug Burgum for president is/was his positions on education.

@Heartlander They need to get rid of all the B.S. stuff in universities. Womens studies, DEI studies, etc...

@cherokeepatti yes trade schools, are the best, i went to them a few months at a time while working, and wow, do they help getting a good job but a 2 year degree in ecomonics or history ispretty much useless

@oldguy73 I agree.

@oldguy73 Well ... with the $$ they are pulling in there is definitely a need there for a few business and accounting courses :)
