“You will not rise to the occasion; you will default to your level of training.”
we know what the problem is and we know what the solution is. this is so much like the diet fads we see advertised all the time. lose 900 pounds in just weeks if you buy this product. we didn’t get fat in weeks and it isn’t coming off in weeks without surgery. the problem is those elite kids got handed a sense of entitlement from our educational system and its gonna take some time(years) to retrain them.VDH said cultural drop outs was an option, i say BS. we cannot stay relevant if we don’t stay informed. we can’t have a say with our next generation if we let some one else train them. Hillary Clinton said it takes a village to raise a child, what she didn’t mention is, that village is all related. its not a village in that it is more an extended family. the proper saying is that it takes a family to raise a child. I am not afraid, storm coming? so what this isn’t the first time and it isn’t going to be the last. another poster said:
He rules a country he does not understand and a people with whom he has never broken bread, accordingly his only option will be to break them once his thin patina of charm wears off. i remember the old folks and what they did to survive the depression. we ain’t gonna break that easy.
