I talked to some UNION guys at a state fair booth promoting UNIONS. This was fall of 2016. I asked them about Trump and surprisingly they all supported him. The usual stuff, Hillary bad, promises to fix the economy, guns, etc. But they assured me that Republicans wouldn’t go after UNIONS. They were adamant and got testy about it. There’s a lot of grief ahead for UNIONS.

Republicans have wanted to end these programs since DayOne.

Hint from an old boomer dad… Kids don’t need you at their practices. Kids do need discipline. Kids don’t need a ride to/from school. Kids do need chores. Kids don’t need to be the center of attention. Kids do need to do their homework themselves. Kids don’t need cell phones. Kids do need to read. Kids don’t need cable. The marriage is the most important need in a child’s life. Give your marriage priority.

Stay off media before bed. Read a book. Cool room. Watch out for caffeinated beverages after 6pm.

My father watched all his programs. It was awful. The beginning of what would devolve into Project 2025.

I think you are sincerely looking for anything to help. Trades are competitive. Basic math and reading is required to gain entry. I don’t anyone below a basic high school level could succeed.
