I was recently at a college where I learned that enrollment in all engineering curricula is down by more than half over five years ago. I thought for a long time about this trend, and it seems to me that we’ve lost our love of hard work and knowledge. Without a thirst for knowledge and a willingness to sacrifice, I think it easy to loose an understanding of military strength and when war is necessary.

It’s like much of our beloved country has retreated into a magical fairy tale box that tells them whatever they want to hear. Oh, right, I guess many have.
