Discussion: Trump Admin To Propose Merger Of Education And Labor Departments

What I like about this idea is that the effort is better coordinated by personnel in the same department. In different departments, the coordination is less effective because they’re two different jurisdictions. The mission would be coordinated and synchronized under one roof.

She has four kids so she has real life experience in labor.

[How come you never hear about that guy anymore? He used to be on the news all the time…? Can’t say that I miss him, but it’s weird that he just kind of disappeared. Was that also due to the rise of the teabaggers? I know, kinda OT but this post made me think of it…:flushed:]

Yeah, but vocational training might help the families of blue collar GOP voters. And they are more reliable voters when scared and barely hanging on.

“the Workforce”

Did Stephen Miller com up with this, too. Are they trying to sound like Nazis?

Instead of the paradigm being education sets you free, it can change now to work sets you free.

I honestly didn’t think he could do this much damage so quickly
[/quote]In terms Trump would understand, having a demolition company bring down a building, after the explosives are set, takes maybe a minute. Building or re-building a structure (or institution of government or health care availability, etc.) takes a long time. You’re right - it will take a long time and considerable effort. But, it’s gotta be done or the country is done for.

Dems better make a helluva lot of noise about this. This is clearly part of the attempt to create a situation that allows states to use voucher systems to divert public funding away from public education and destroy it while creating no other option but conservative Christian indoctrination centers for children to attend…and the Dems should fucking say so…loudly…into every mic they can get in front of their faceholes.

Maybe they should just cut to the chase and collapse everything into the Department of Defense.

There are just so many issues the Dems can run on, but I will put money on that they don’t use any of them.

Same thing in TX although IIRC the decrease in funding began in the 1980s after the S&L crash.

Gate at Auschwitz.
The German translates to “work sets you free.”

Better yet the Department of Child Labor.

So this is the Republicans’ latest plan to break up the teachers’ union. I don’t know why Trump isn’t disbanding all the Cabinet posts and just putting Javanka in charge of everything.

I don’t know how they can dumb down America more than it is already, but Putin is trying his best with the help of the Republicans. Trump supporters do not identify with their own countrymen any longer and would rather be Russians.

Exactly and what I was alluding to of course.

Better still – Donnie should combine them and rename it “Dept. of Child Labor and Internment”.

Hmm. I was assuming that the idea was to put DeVos in charge of both. She’s been doing a great job of eliminating Federal oversight of anything a school district, private education corporation, or state board of education might want to do, law and Constitution be damned.

I also figured that another motivation for merging two departments was that the Trumpp admin is unable to manage adequate staffing for both (“adequate” being somewhere well below “full”).

This lady was from Jerome, AZ … not a big place… She decided, on her visit to the campus, to enter dorm rooms unannounced. The 4th amendment was not high on her list of things to worry about. Her intention was to do what she callef a “white glove test” for dirt I assume. I think she really wanted to catch a kid looking at porn on their new fangled computer. As you can imagine sge was not all that populat around the university.
