As a Master Carpenter that trained hundreds of young men in a trade I can assure you this is needed. There are too few skilled people willing or able to train the people we need to do trade work. That said I was paid by the EMPLOYER to train those young men. I did not get taxpayer dollars for this. As long as you are educating these people to own their own business and not only training them to be a taxpayer funded workforce for corporations I am all for this.

@GovRonDeSantis Many of these tech college classes need to go back into the jr colleges at there affordable prices. The programs should not give scholarships to foreigners or foreigners taking up a Floridians spot. University co-op program is ❤️‍🔥

Every state needs to replicate this. So many young men are no longer motivated to go into the skilled trades because the industry was taken over by illegals and the pay became shit because of it. A man used to be able to support a whole family, buy a house, pay his bills, on his wages alone.
