Our president is inspiring and good, and all of that, but: I'm looking at the 55 year-old woman who's going for a degree in biotech, and I'm thinking, great! Too bad no company in this country will be hiring a 55 year old woman to do anything earning a decent living, at least not any time soon.
Jobs. Jobs. Jobs.
We are so fucked if the Hill doesn't start taking this seriously.

I'm trying to offer an answer to both this post and the "explain why we're not fucked" query above. The answer is, we may be fucked, and the 55-year old may be fucked (although even under Ryan's plan she may get to keep her Social Security benefits), but perhaps IF, and that's a big IF, this investment in a resurgent technological US comes to pass, her children, or maybe her younger sister, won't be.
