[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about coming up with a solution that makes low-income earners better able to earn higher incomes?[/quote] No, no, no DC likes to import knowledge. We need to keep DC wage earners dumb and uneducated so they will serve all the smart people with the good jobs. :shock: [/quote] We already have a solution. It's called "education." Trouble is, you have to avail yourself of it.[/quote] I'm talking about opportunities for adult, the city only invests in K-12. Nobody really talks about the folks who do make it successfully through DCPS because I guess then it's a "success story." But this success story is now qualified to work at some some service jobs but even without an AA degree that is increasingly hard to come by. People need bachelors degrees to become cops, work in hotels(beyond cleaning rooms), and many other jobs in the service industry. But in DC, we like to make sure we permanently oppress our underclass so they will always be around to clean the houses for all the DCUM types that come in from elsewhere with their fancy degrees and good jobs. The city has never really taken education seriously, K-12 or otherwise.[/quote]
