There is a difference between the service industry and the skilled trades. I am a computer consultant. Been doing it for a lot longer than you. Initially I worked in Detroit for the automotive industry where there are plenty of machinists. They read blueprints they understand geometry and have IQ's that the industry requires. IQ's which fruit pickers don't have. Many of those jobs have moved overseas due to environmental regulations and the weight of the bureaucracy that you seem to cherish. Maybe you don't get it. In China to go to university there is incredible competition. Not skin color. Not sex. Real brain power. From 6 am to 9 at night they study to have the chance to get in. Lizzie it is going to be hard enough competing with them on an equal footing without having the weight of our bloated incompetent bureaucracy holding us back. By the way glad to see you like Powell.
