The US problem goes back to the elimination of high school VOCATIONAL training. That was ELIMINATED to keep property taxes LOW for the rich people with large properties.........Blue collar work SHOULD BE respected.

I think you have a tendency to use cyclop's vision for most matters. Vocational training was eliminated due to the drop in interest because college had become the "thing" and is being restored in many school districts at this point. To proclaim it was eliminated for the benefit of the rich has no merit. It is much easier for the wealthy to pay property taxes than the middle income or poor population.
