No, Manufacturing jobs won't revive the economy

[Vandelay]

Revamping our entire approach to education, energy, and job training so people are qualified for the more tech-oriented jobs that are in demand and do pay a solid wage. (There's a lot more than that, but I don't feel like typing another how to save the country essay).

The answer is technological innovation and exploiting foreign people.


But realistically, there are some Asian nations that have the jump on us.. after we lose the number one spot we won't regain it due to a joke of an education system and demonic media that over-saturates the youth with BS values and a numb mentality.

I'll just leave this here ....



So even if manufacturing comes back to the U.S., robots will be taking over the intensive labor aspect from humans ... and humans will be those with higher level technical or engineering skills to oversee the robots... according to the article.

There is a good book i think everyone should read called the coming jobs war.

The us has been ahead on every technological revolution for the last 200 years. Much like when agricultural economy fizzled out, industrial economy came in...we are in that transition right now....we are a post industrial service and information economy, we dont have to make products persay but we do need to be ahead of the revolutions which we aren't...our education system is built for working a factory...you can count, you can read you can pull this lever and make a living. Shyt is automated now so those jobs are in decline.

I think that next tech revolution honestly will be/is robots. My current job utilizes robots, not c3po's but roboic arms and machines.

For us to stay ahead the whole education system should be revamped...there are things that cant quite be automated easily and i suggest that those become the skills that schools teach if overpriced ass college isnt the answer.

Honestly and people may disagree, hell im not even completely sure if i know its the answer, but i think after 8th grade kids should enter into a trade...mechanic, nursing, painting, masonry, networking, programming, engineering, etc...the more complex skillsets you goto college but for the majority i think they can be learned in them last 4 years of high school.

I think this will reenergize folks to stay in school because its actually practical work, and it will reinvigorate people to tolerate dealing with these bad ass kids.

I agree. Around 13 years of age, you are ready to learn medicine or programming. Starting at a young age gives people more time to learn as well. You can read Macbeth on your own time if you want to be cultured n shyt. 9th grade - 2nd year in college, are huge waste of time, imo.

The problem here however is, there is a big ass education bubble just waiting to pop...you got all these fly by night schools and overpriced ass colleges that arent quite ready to stopping raking in that money.

Its become one big bureaucratic nightmare. You just cant flip that switch over night. If this was a smaller country itd be much easier. One solution could be, the funding that goes to high schools could be switched to trade schools, and these trade schools accept applicants at a younger age.

Sadly, its probably gonna take a depression level event for this to happen however.

get corporations out of politics, and you can see some improvements.

Yeah this has been clear for quite some time now, but I bet that won't stop @LeyeT from rambling on and on about how we need to bring back manufacturing jobs and put in place tariffs and quotas.

Leave your ivory towers or we'll burn them down with you in them.

The elitism on this forum is sickening just sick.

Why because that whole "we need to rebuild our factories" talking point has been proven to be nonsense?

You don't understand how many families you've put in a perpetual cycle of poverty since the 60's, thanks for voting for Nixon and Reagan, dikk.

So I'm supposed to be pissed off at machines and automation now?

this article is pretty messed up. I couldn't imagine trying to live off of $8.00 /hr

$10.50 being "decent" money.

That's still horse sh*t when there are CEO's making 50k an hour.

shyt is like trying to use celsius for recording a wide range of temperatures....
