Apprentice the Future

Ah Peter, it's easy to agree that 'Global Economy' means, competing right here in our backyard. At least, sometimes that's what I envision. Let's be honest here. Right now, our main source of college educated folks are coming from abroad. They are cheap intelligence to import, while we at home figure out a way to fit into the mix. If we could really round out the potential future for our youth, we could have a viable populous. This does mean apprenticing in a wide variety of fields, many far from four year university. Imagine if in middle/high school you could begin to explore music, engineering, computer tech., editing, etc. I think many would be happy about that.
