[Hoot Gibson]

If the elites running our economy are so effective, why is out debt out of control? Why are wages stagnant for 20 years? Why is it that college graduates have basically the same job opportunities they had coming out of High School?

You answered your own question. The elites trying to run the economy are the problem. That does not mean that Trump is the solution.

Lower the cost of doing business in this country, and business will boom. The forward march of technology and automation will not stop, no matter what our federal government does. However, young people in this country are not taking advantages of opportunities that are available. I know first hand that software companies have a difficult time filling openings for programmers and database administrators.

I have worked with outstanding programmers who were self taught high school graduates, and one who earned his GED and took some community college courses. College students going deep into debt partying their way through school and earning a degree in an area where high paying jobs are unavailable, have only themselves to blame.

People who have lost good paying jobs in manufacturing, mining, and other labor intensive fields, have only their own government to blame for their situation. As long as voters let candidates like Hillary and Trump demagogue their way into office, our economy will continue to limp along and shed jobs.
