In addition to my son's CNC class, there was a LARGE group of automotive graduates, and a group of welding students also graduating. The crowd was probably close to 1,000 people. I was actually surprised at how big the event was. I was also surprised at how patriotic and conservative the whole thing was.
I wouldn't have been surprised, the people teaching those courses are usually hard working patriotic, Americans, who understand that the working man/woman is the backbone of this country, and continuing to train them in their respective fields, will guarantee more generations of people who appreciate the labors of those, who pay for those who feel they are entitled to everything. My nephew graduated from ATI in Houston a couple of years ago as a diesel mechanic, and he has never had a problem getting a job. He has changed jobs twice for better offers and now works only a few minutes from home.
When the dust settles from all of the left wing protests, and the American workers are the ones who are benefiting from the new changes in our wretched system, the ones left out, will be those still looking for their "free stuff"
Tell TAS we are all rooting for him, and all of his fellow graduates.
