Question to be discusses in class: If Biden gets elected, which commodity's price will go up? Quote: "Millennials are lagging when it comes to money. People born from 1981 to 1966 control just 4.6% of U.S. wealth even though they make up the largest part of the workforce, with 72 million members. While it is not unusual for younger people to be poorer than their elders, this particular group is far behind previous generations at the same age, Fed data show. Meanwhile, Gen Xers have tripled their wealth since 2018, and Baby Boomers remain firmly ensconced at the top." Don't forget to watch the documentary "Capital in the Twenty-First Century" if you can.

"Here's a trick, do the trick, I'll give you a treat. Everybody now needs a 4.5 grade point average to get into college. Grades are so important, all you're going to do is learn the trick -- memorize the trick for at least three months to get the grade." The way around that, Elings strongly believes, is project education. "You get a project, it's your own. You have to get to the end. You learn what you're good at, what you're bad at. You learn what it means to finish something. You learn because you have a need to know. That's what this guy at Dos Pueblos does. Project education from freshman to senior."
