Perhaps this approach to addressing the future mirrors unconventional strategies like attempting to halt Hurricane Dorian through prayers, as seen in this incident involving Florida Christians https://friendlyatheist.patheos.com/2019/08/31/these-florida-christians-think-their-prayers-will-stop-hurricane-dorian/
Or maybe American families are just following the advice of billionaire Peter Thiel (a notable Trump supporter), who advocates for unconventional perspectives in education !! https://www.newsweek.com/2017/03/03/peter-thiel-fellowship-college-higher-education-559261.html
Billionaire Peter Thiel is the very same genius who wrote "competition is for losers". An expression that was in the title of an article published in the Wall Street Journal. In a stunning display of hypocrisy, Thiel argued that if tech companies shrugged off competition worries, they could blissfully concentrate on crafting superior products for their clients. It's almost as if he forgot that his own company snagged a cool $1.5 billion in contracts with the Trump Administration https://thenextweb.com/artificial-intelligence/2019/08/12/study-trumps-paid-peter-thiels-palantir-1-5b-so-far-to-build-ices-mass-surveillance-network/
Thankfully, in March of this year, Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz laid bare an uncomfortable reality: numerous American billionaires discover it's more lucrative to funnel their fortunes into politics, seeking lower taxes, than to invest in actual business ventures.
Meanwhile, the student loan debt in America has reached a staggering $1.5 trillion https://time.com/5662626/student-loans-repayment/ Be there as it may that is a lot less than the 17 trillion bank bailout https://www.forbes.com/sites/mikecollins/2015/07/14/the-big-bank-bailout/#23b72c5a2d83 However, it's noteworthy that, according to American philosophy, a bank bailout is viewed as a natural capitalist operation, while a student bailout is often criticized as a communist plague.
On July 4, 2018, Berkeley Professor Robert B. Reich twitted a quote by a former Supreme Court judge: "We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." It appears that Americans may have chosen to prioritize the presence of billionaires over a more evenly distributed democracy !
