How Long Can the State of Florida Sustain the Brain Drain ?

When my kids were in high school, they took advantage of quite a number of AP classes to get a headstart on their college careers.

It seems that the State of Florida does not value the advancement of its high school students in its continuing efforts to cripple the education of its citizens.

"We are on the precipice of signing an agreement to advance talks with Iran that preserves the good parts of former President Barack Obama’s Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) while amplifying its flaws.
Mr. Obama came to an agreement that did not involve America’s most precious treasure, the lives and limbs of our soldiers.  The 1.7 billion dollars of frozen Iranian assets released by Obama pales in comparison to the 300 billion being floated as a rebuilding fund.
So far, speculation that Iran will be free in the future to continue its nuclear program is the opposite of Trump’s stated goal for the war and in direct opposition to what Mr. Obama negotiated.

High tech doesn't make as much money as you think.

The biggest money outlay are military contractors and subsidized farming/ construction.

Military will always have money, and farming depends on how far we're willing to make the planet unlivable due to animal agriculture.
