    This guy is a moron. Somebody should audit the auditor.

    First off? A lot of these degrees would be useful in the majority of the Econ sectors that are actually growing. But if you notice his junk list of degrees… it’s things like African American studies, gender studies… you know. Things that are “woke”.

    So. Whose trying to indoctrinate whom?

    In any case this moron is probably a symptom of why Mississippi has a lower than average economic growth; why the state is loosing educated workers; and why it ranks 37th in gdp and is on pace to collapse even further. If you want to stop the brain drain (people leaving…) might want to develop economic opportunities instead of bejng an asshole.

      One thing I hadn’t foreseen was the degree of brain drain at the state-level. Being born in certain states has become an immediate handicap that many will never overcome because they’ll never be given the tools.

      Great country.

      it’s things like African American studies, gender studies

      More importantly, those are not things that anyone gets convinced or tricked into studying. People study those things because they are already invested in the subject.
