X-Listprocessor-Version: 6.0c -- ListProcessor by Anastasios Kotsikonas Content-description: Mail message body Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Status: O Content-Length: 540 Lines: 11 Why is it that the Bush administration seems so hell bent on taking away educational programs for adult learners -- directly or indirectly...? --I think it is because they want to expand the pool of service workers. Florida's biggest GOP donors included Wal-Mart,the cruise ship industry and theme park owners...these businesses need many low-wage workers. Without education for adult learners there will be a larger pool competing for service jobs. By cutting adult learning funds the pool of those stuck in low-wage jobs expands.
