WP2 part 2 Part 1-2

Part 1 Comments that are effective 1. " College isn't everything. Skilled trades can pay just as much and are vitally needed to the economy. Students should not be bankrupting themselves for a degree they cannot afford. The US need people with practical, real world skills more than 4 year degrees and a mountain of debt.
