This is my fucking point avatar_Biggie Smiles Bigly...


Merely Latching onto the label of 'tradesman' doesn't automatically make workers any less replaceable nor provide job security.

Tradespeople are just as vulnerable to technological change and corporate politics as White Collar workers or those with Bachelor Degrees.

The technocrats just haven't gone after them yet, Bigly.

The trades people are not in their sights at the moment.

But when the Elites decide they need to trim the workforce s'more, Blue Collars or Tradespeople will become just as expandable as college educated White Collar workers.

Quote from: JOE on December 01, 2025, 11:25:40 AMAnd yet having a trade or a high grade profession is no absolute guarantee of anything avatar_Oliver the Second .

I've known people who were flying high, well qualified professionals and tradesmen who lost everything.

I think skills should teach kids is how to invest, save money & start a business.

Maybe even give new high school graduates a thousand dollars for a starter investment fund if they complete some courses so they do it right.

Sure a trade can advance a person in life but what young people need to learn is self employment & self reliance/sufficiency.

Government should encourage people to start their own businesses, no matter how small. Even just side hustles that make a few thousand a year.

Just a small amount can make the difference between having a roof over their heads and becoming homeless.
Pussycat, remember what I told you after you performed oral sex on me this morning about not sticking to the thread topic?

I know you are starved for attention Sugarbuns, but this is not how you will get replies.

Do you understand now Angeldrawers or do you need to drop to your knees first.

He is getting worse with the attention seeking bs that derails discussions.

Other thing to is because governments or large corporations can no longer guarantee stable employment due to AI, funding or subsidies should be provided so people can start their own businesses and become at least partially self employed.
