In disregard for all my nihilism, I actually disagree with this. People in general are pretty retarded when it comes to deciding how the actual world should work (f.ex. North Korea, the economy, Russia, etc) but when it comes to things within their actual lifesphere they can be surprisingly intelligent. And I think learning trades when it's free and right in their faces via public education could very well be one of those things. I'm not saying that your average person would revolutionize the auto industry, but I very much think they could grow up to be perfectly good mechanics who tried their ass off to be a mechanic. They just have to be given the chance via a public education system that isn't a garbage heap and now I see your issue. But I mean we can fix this ****, right?
