I agree with some of what you are saying
one way our country can get moving ahead is with skilled trades.
You are correct about college.........not everyone should be going and the majors they graduate with are usually useless.
look at all the manufacturing jobs that CAN'T get filled right now bc people don't have the skills anymore. (If you want some links I can send you them)
Green jobs arent there yet and alot of the technology for it isnt there yet. It'll come but we need more R&D....not more Solyndras.
We can also start fixing our infrastructure (I think Obama was correct about that one but we shouldnt have to borrow another trillion dollars from the Chinese to do it)
