Actually, those jobs could be outsourced.
Take tree trimmers for instance, a company from Mexico rolls in and buys an American tree trimming company. They fire all the American workers, then fill those positions with fellow Mexicans. Now they are family , cousins, maybe a few illegals etc and the company provides housing for them..or rather a house where they all live. Now this new Mexican company can pay their workers next to nothing and undercut all the other tree trimming companies. Sounds familiar doesn't it ?
That's not outsourcing. But yes it does sound familiar.
Challenging people with that lefty commie crap? no thanks. You officially never lived under communism. Probably just another lefty academic
In Cuba, intellectuals with liberal fantasies (like most college professors in the USA today sadly are) do not exist. You have insulted the intelligence of the Cuban people by comparing them to American white liberal idiots. Even more hopeless than today's college professors are the spoiled, entitled, and ultra-liberal college students.

Dictators are NOT supposed to rule communist countries. Most "communist" countries are dictatorships in disguise. That said, I don't really think Fidel Castro is/was a dictator.
Why do public schools in this country want to steer all students to colleges, community colleges, other programs for intelligent people, etc? High schools are failing the working class. Communist revolution, anyone?
Colleges are a business and have an intimate relationship with the Dem party. Universities get grants, government loans to students to pay the universities and Dems get their political support in the polling booth and access to the malleable minds of our children. Not a dem finger is lifted to cut the cost of college, the only action is to round up more money to pay the outrageous edu costs that rise unabated. The problem with high schools is the edu admin and dem pols believe there is an infinite linear realtionship between money spent and quality edu. We have long past the point of diminishing return and still more money is said to be the answer. More money for teachers unions to fight dems political foes. NJ teachers union for instance spent 7 million dollars of conscripted dues from its membership to help dems fight legislation proposed by chris christie.
Dems treated Joe the Plumber badly.
Interesting that the point of college was to provide a broad spectrum of studies to teach how to think critically and appreciate the arets and sciences. Doctors, lawyers and dentists aside, college was to provide a well rounded edu. Now the Colleges are now more like trade schools, which were the alternative to college and provided the student with skills to get a job upon graduation. Colleges pretend to be all about finding jobs but fall way short of that dangling carrot.
A college level edu, at one time, was intended to allow a student to contribute at a higher level of creativity with a broad knowledge base while maintaing a global perspective to benefit the larger part of society in some way while a plumber is critical to have, that pursuit is limited in its overall contribution to society. that's the theory.
