The Y Article - By John Norris | Foreign Policy

The Y Article - By John Norris | Foreign Policy:

"By investing energy, talent, and dollars now in the education and training of young Americans -- the scientists, statesmen, industrialists, farmers, inventors, educators, clergy, artists, service members, and parents, of tomorrow -- we are truly investing in our ability to successfully compete in, and influence, the strategic environment of the future. Our first investment priority, then, is intellectual capital and a sustainable infrastructure of education, health and social services to provide for the continuing development and growth of America's youth."

Oregon senator Wayne Morse made the same argument decades ago, endlessly, to no avail.
