Smith Fri, 22 Jan 2010 21:02:33 +0000 http://www.freedom24.org/rationalpost/?p=393#comment-857 Is High Technology and More Education destroying us? When Franklin Roosevelt became President he had a large labor force of farmes and unskilled worker that he knew he could get back to work with WPA and other programs. Today we have probably the world's most educated unemployment line. Franklin Roosevelt was able to close the banks for a few days and when they reopened the FDIC had been born. Oh in no way am I criticizing Technology and Education I am just thinking that we are where we are today because the Tusted people in Certain placed did the same things over the past ten years as was done before the Deprssion in 1929. The major difference today is most people today are not laborers and farmers. We have become an educated society where the same programs of the thirties would not work today. There is no government controlled program that can put millions of highly skilled and trained people back to work right away. Neither Technology or Education got us to where we are today. It was uncontrolled programs, planning and selfish people that got us here. Is High Technology and More Education destroying us?
