I'm way more free trade than the average person, but we have a lot of americans that need work and don't have the capability to be managers, even if it were the case that they could just manage foreign labor from the US. And we do put a pretty big burden on american labor to make it uncompetitive. 15% right off the back on top of being a high wage, high COLA country to begin with, before you talk about all the indirect expenses. I don't think the "solution" is a good one, but I can understand the frustration of not being allowed to compete on anything near a level playing field and then being told you're too expensive compared to foreigners.
That's just another one of Ramsey's positions where he takes something that is generally true and applies it regardless of the situation. yes, there is a dignity to living on your own that you don't have when you move back in with your parents, and it probably does stunt your growth in some respect. But there is a difference between living at home for a year or two while you sock away money and living at home for a year or two while you use the savings to spend more on eating out, drinking, partying, and traveling. There's also a difference between being part of a multigenerational household where you are an equal member of the household, and one where you are a subsidized tenant.

Apropos of that gif, Margaret Atwood was said to have finished writing Handmaid’s Tale when she was writer-in-residence at Alabama…

I agree with pretty much all of this post
Many of the Pack would just say send the kids to the community colleges and train them, and that’s a good idea
Managerial work is a different animal though, and folks who have the critical thinking skills are more suited
A possible best case scenario for a Mississippi manufacturing managing gig such as this would be someone who wants to stay in state, gets the associates from a juco, and then goes on to earn a bachelors & masters…
What is no kids "propaganda"? I know that most of my kids' friends have a much more negative outlook on their early life than I did because of their lived experience. Why would you want to bring a child into the world when your lived experience is that you are going to have a difficult time taking care of yourself, much less others?
My experience wasn’t great either
Many Mississippians are simple people (that ain’t an insult because many folks don’t like complexity or change— including myself) who don’t understand, don’t want to comprehend, and don’t want to deal with people who are different than the norm…
A lot of 17ing Mississippians don’t have the emotional maturity to deal with life…
