    Businesses aren’t investing in the future generations for the same reasons that any politician capable of doing anything meaningful has fucked off into retirement. No point in spending your last minutes on the Titanic doing repairs. The greedy and powerful are smashing and grabbing and burning though human resources like it’s the end of the world, because it is. And the rest of us are smoking em if we got em.

      It’s only the end of the world when people give up. There’s plenty left to do, at least if you’re willing to make the effort.

      same thing they wont do anything for low birth rates, its just half-assed attempt, or using culture wars, or actual wars a distraction. Also the reason they dont want to fund schools most of the time, and this not only in red areas, blue areas are underfunded. if teachers are getting such a low-starting salaries in thier contracts, the districts underfunded. (i met a former co-worker that confirmed this as a teacher she refused to work in a dangerous district and also because the pay was so low.) this was a blue area.
