1) Americans returning to the land
2) Apprenticeships and cooperative education, and
3) better off Americans making major contributions to Land Reparations-- In America's early Colonial days most of us were farmers. Work--in the future--must involve extreme conservation, Ecological Technology, and a return to the LAND.
If this presents a real problem with workers being able to keep up with INFLATION--the Business People need get Progressive in building programs to greatly reduce Mortgages, Rents, Tuitions, Groceries, and Utilities--in exchange for Workers and Organized Labor to go infinitely Greener with every kind of work they do--assuming we all give a damn.
A minority of today's College Students are involved with Cooperative Education They WORK in their field alternate semesters--to gain experience in their profession--and earn enough money for the next semester's tuition. As some better off Americans have been financially supporting Land Reparations for African, Hispanic and Native American Farmers--many more could and should. I envision so much of this support for these minority farmers returning to and working their own land--that it makes a major contribution to affordable housing--by reversing too much demand and too little supply--which currently allows the Landlord -Investors to charge Rents which are 2 and 3 times higher than they should be. If this supply demand situation is brought into balance--then rents will drop greatly--and tenants will be able to build big bank accounts and
have greater upward mobility.
1) Americans returning to the land,
2) Apprenticeships and cooperative education, and
3) better off Americans making major contributions to Land Reparations-- many College Apprenticeships could involve College Students working a number of semesters on African, Hispanic and Native American farms:
Colleges might make arrangements so that $25,000 per student semester tuitions are paid--instead of to the College--to African, Hispanic and Native American Land Reparations funds.
If Colleges must reorient themselves toward blue collar work--Perhaps with the Skills USA organization--many very well-paid Apprenticeship Instructors could come from
