[Danzig]

a move needs to be made in encouraging kids to attend a trade school as well. college is one route to a good future, but we are facing a shortage of electricians, plumbers, hvac, auto mechanics, etc. it's all well and good to encourage kids to go to school, but some only end up racking up debt with a degree not worth the paper it's printed on. the papermill here in town has been trying for months to hire electrical/instrumentation techs. this is a highly paid position, especially for this area. they haven't found one candidate in months that qualified. and this is the same all over. people are out of work, but people are hiring-but the unemployed need to be qualified!
