Job Corps May Sound Nice in Theory, But the Cost Per Graduate Is Eye-Popping
It’s time for another “President Donald Trump outrages bipartisan group with budget cuts” story for the media to run with, this time regarding Job Corps.
The headlines speak again of chaos. The Hill: “Labor Department suspends Job Corps centers operations, drawing bipartisan pushback.” CBS News: “Thousands of students in limbo as Trump administration seeks to shut down Job Corps centers.” The Nation: “How the White House’s War on the Job Corps Is Hurting Trump Country.” The Seattle Medium: “Killing Jobs Corps Is Killing Equity.”
It gets more febrile the more left you get on the spectrum, but The Hill is probably the most balanced of these sources — and provides the neatest, if somewhat reduced, explanation of just what’s going on.
