You can make a good living as a blue collar worker. Not everybody needs a college degree to become successful.

I agree but you have a generation of folks that were told that the only way we were going to be successful was if we became engineers, doctors, IT, or lawyers. So now we have a ton of highly educated people with specific degrees coupled with the lowest living affordability of any modern generation, and that's why trade skills don't seem viable.

This is the American Business Standard: make the public sector pay for the privilege of hosting a business. It works in sports (taxpayers pay for stadiums, etc but can't afford a ticket to the game) and a multitude of other industries that receive public funding both directly and indirectly including in the example of this video, publicly paid worker training. Since Germany is alluded to as a prelude, let's look at the other half of the equation. The German state heavily subsidizes businesses but also collects corporate taxes that would be considered outrageous by American standards. Furthermore, German businesses are not permitted to simply pull up stakes and ships factories overseas, nor are they allowed to oppose unions. They are required to put employees first and business opportunities second. Overpaid executives are a rarity. Frankly, I am becoming sickened by the business and opportunity crowd demolishing all cooperative institutions on the altar of profit.

They get paid every week too if the school is doing a 24 week rotation of 3days school, 2days on site, then 2 days, then 1 day , then none, getting paid more and more each year. A friend of mine even got a 2 year networking apprentiship in SA, but they are hard to find. There is also furniture making apprentiship, which is thought through an art college, but you don't have to. These only turn the system on it's head in y1. Class first, then you try find an aprentiship with a local company, then you do the same rotation. but now you had no income while at class in the first year.

It is NOT about finding the cheapest or most efficient locations to do your business and only use your nation as market for the product dumping. We as the people of America, should produce and consume the products. Only if there is a rare case that we need to get from abroad, such as minerals or other specific products, should we engage in global trade. We do not block global trade.
