And given the declining need for labor anyway, delaying more people entering the workforce is not really a bad thing.

There is more demand for human labor today than at any point in human history, and the demand is growing.

Per capita demand then.

I'd say the same.

The chance that a 12 year old is in school rather than putting in 14 hour days in a factory has improved a bit.

The demand for child labor at low wages would still be there if not for child labor laws. It is why child labor laws are actually needed.

As has the chance that a 70 year old is playing golf instead of tenderizing whale blubber or being dead.

Anyway, I'm conflicted about this.  It seems far more like corporate welfare to the educational-industrial complex than anything needed by the people at large; on the other hand, I've always said that if we're going to need waiters to be educated in the reasons behind and the conduct of the Franco-Prussian War, might as well just fund the damned program directly instead of requiring said waiters to indebt themselves.

I don't think the Reasons behind and the conduct of the Franco-Prussian War is covered very much in the first two years of community college.

And it's "education-industrial complex".

I find the Franco-Prussian War interesting and the accomplishments of the great Bismark should be taught in high school.

I would have never guessed you would be for teaching the origins of the European welfare state in high school.

It would replace Algebra I in 11Bravo's new education initiative, the "No Child Left Behind Without Proper General Staff Officer Support" Act.

[celedhring]

I studied the Franco-Prussian War in high-school. It was even part of the Spanish equivalent of the SAT.

Hell, I'm for teaching basic financial and money management in high school.
