[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about coming up with a solution that makes low-income earners better able to earn higher incomes?[/quote] How about making them more useful and valuable to employers? Reading, math, writing skills? A lot of kids graduating from DCPS can barely do that. Many can't manage what little money they do have. How about even things like showing up on time? Being able to interact and communicate with customers or co-workers politely, coherently and effectively? Even the most basic life skills are lacking in a lot of these kids by the time they graduate. How do you expect them to find their way into higher income if they don't even have the basics down? There's more to life than just showing up. You have to work at it.[/quote]
