It was us that got brainwashed. There have been plenty of articles, etc., over the past 20-30 years talking about the wages of plumbers, carpenters, cable layers, etc. The younger generations have much more access to information than we did. - Lapsody

What I myself see on TV news is frequent references to "college prep" in one context or another but seldom, to the point of almost never", to the good income available to you if you want to learn how to weld for example or the dignity of working with your hands or the benefits of not being cooped up in an office all day.
