Coupling good Intentions With Sound Economics

My daughter graduated from the St. Charles County Community College last Saturday.  I am happy for her, yet we all need to be asking ourselves what kind of a world the next generation will face.  Two of the commencement speakers quoted Dr. Seuss.  Is anyone else concerned with the dumbing down of America?  Are we now trying so hard to entertain that we must draw from a socialist children’s book author for inspiration?  Nevertheless, three of my children have now earned four post-secondary degrees, and I am grateful for the opportunities afforded all of us living in a country that values education.
