Another saying college isn't where we need to send most young Americans.

Now, the VP declares too many White-Collar jobs are "fake."

Far be it from me, a die-hard Union Democrat, to denigrate the trades (I once was a Guidance Counselor serving a Vocational-Technical High School), but I know a Republican effort to steer the Middle Class away from the Ivy League when I smell one.

Not because Republicans are looking out for the future employment opportunities for the Middle Class (the poor don't even register), but because they want to rule the economic roost all by themselves.
