Here's a modest proposal, an idea I got from reading Supernova Era by Cixin Liu: we could send the kids to boarding schools in China. They have covid under control and we already outsource a lot of industrial production to China so why not outsource education too. Shipping kids over there and back could help stimulate the airlines and maybe Trump could negotiate a deal to pay for it via subsidized soybeans and other excess agricultural products. The parents would still have an externalized child rearing service and the kids would get a nice cross-cultural experience. There's probably excess real estate in Chinese boomtowns that could house the American students. Then when covid is under control here and Trump and his immigration restrictions are in the past the Chinese can resume sending their kids back here to the US to study.
