It's hard to run a modern manufacturing firm without a ready supply of highly educated engineers, applied mathematicians, and economists.

Industrial and Systems Engineering is halfway to a branch of applied math at the graduate level (due to overlap with Operations Research).
My brother in Christ, reindustrialization is based on international capital flows, not dumbass ideas to move down the value chain by turning colleges into vocational schools. You do realize that modern industry is almost always *high* skilled automation?

Read your Michael Pettis, you utter clown.
No reindustrialising? Our academic institutions are a part of the problem, overproducing elites and funnelling them into bullshit unproductive jobs. Half the universities need to close or become vocational colleges. You didn't even mention productivity.

Brexit is in the past. That ship has sailed.

As somebody who grew up in actual for-real poverty and is now well off, this conversion is so tone deaf. Here's a list of things my kids get that I couldn't afford as a kid:
1) New clothes
2) Heat in the winter
3) Fresh fruit
4) Cable television
5) Backpacks
6) School supplies
7) Liquid milk
8) Etc.
3/ $140,000 in many urban areas in the US is a family income that is at least precarious, and at worst, one or two missed paychecks from having to make rent-or-food choice.

To the details...

Fed., state, and FICA taxes take almost $34K. Health insurance on MA's ACA mkt: $18K...

the timeline is beefing so i'll just say:

1) Code Pink is bad. PSL is bad.

2) Yeah you should still go if you're inclined to attend a protest

3) Shame on certain organizations that keep working with Code Pink and PSL

I will vote for the first Democratic candidate that promises to make every single employee and contractor employee for the United States government, piss in a cup within 48 hours of taking office
People got extremely pissy at me over at the other place a couple years back when I explicitly said most people in defense ventures land would fail a drug test on any day of the month, and well
I think it’s profoundly bad that “defense tech” as a culture is ok with its avatars going on stages entirely tuned up and/or spouting off the 14 words.

not to get all conservative or anything as an inveterate homosexual stoner myself but the people in charge of American society are decadent, hedonistic demons motivated by their basest urges, their pettiest grievances, and their vilest bigotries

Consider how much time and energy are devoted to talking about media problems in Democratic / progressive political circles vs. how rarely one sees aligned think tanks devoting resources to policy development.

We asked Indivisibles around the country what they want to see from Democrats in 2026: Nominate real fighters, secure stronger leadership, and demonstrate that the Democratic majorities of 2027 will not be held back by the 2025 status quo.
We are in a battle against fascism. We need fighters, not folders.
It’s time to turn the page in the Democratic Party.
