Sounds like an indictment of our education system.

hugely. no child left behind made sure that pretty much every child was left behind.

I like the system Germany has. about half way thru their high school years the kids are put on a path that either prepares them for a 4 year traditional university education; or for a trade school or "other" path.

trying to send everyone to college has been a failure. the reliance on standardized testing is another. we have forgone testing knowledge, and instead test their ability to take a test.

what threats? it was part of the agreement that allowed "US Steel" to be bought out by a Japanese company. government never should have been part of it to the point of making terms.

My fault. I was still talking about the secret service dismantling the network.

That's my first mistake this year.

When I think of 'bailouts', i don't typically think of loans to other countries. I think of free money or propping a private company which made poor decisions.

That's an interesting delineation opinion to hold, but I'm not sure that the end result is any different whether the feds are propping up a business that has failed because of poor economic decisions, or propping up the government of a foreign country that has failed because of poor economic decisions.

I am an interesting person.

A couple aspects that delineate it for me is this helps build international relationships without the use of our military. And, this money going into the Argentinian economy doesn't have an inflationary impact on our currency.

Trump caused it. USAID bought US grain no more. Trump tariffs ended exports. Farmers will need, and get massive bailouts, making them welfare recipients.

Oh but it does have an inflationary impact here. The treasury has to create that money just the same as if it was staying here
