Trump’s “vision” is setting up an isolationist xenophobic plutocracy. I’m not sure if that really qualifies.

- lazyjones 8y agoI was referring to his idea of bringing back manufacturing and jobs in general, his space policy and other such initiatives in the spirit of the 1960s and 1970s.
- yardie 8y agoExcept they never went away. Manufacturing is highly automated and specialized. If a highschool dropout could do it then eventually a simple robot will be able to do it. Politicians, executives, and union leaders should be taken to task for letting education and drop training fall so far behind. Until our space program gets out of politics it will continue to be a political football, some politicians will deem it too expensive, others will treat it as a jobs program with no objective. Look at his current cabinet? Do you think any of them will stick around for the next decade to shepherd a successful space program. I don't think any of them have the political capital to finish whatever he may start.
