  "Between 1967 and 2012, the ranks of USA adults with at least a 4-year college degree rose from 13% to 32%, «a remarkable up-grading in the ‷skills‴ of USA's workers» as a [report] by Anthony Carnevale has described it. Yet, even when you added up all of those 4-year [degrees], 2-year associate degrees, [doctor's degrees, first professional degrees] and post-secondary vocational certificates, it still came out to less than half of the working-age population [thus showing the author's hyper-credentialism]." --- Rick Wartzman 2017 _The End of Loyalty: The Rise and Fall of Good Jobs in the USA_ pg343

  "Though the allies had fully recovered by 1960, the unilateral [USA] concessions continued. Then, with the Immigration Act of 1965, [USA] threw open the 'golden door' and tens of millions of immigrants burst through. To their number has been added annual invasions of millions of illegal aliens crossing our southern border to compete with un-skilled and semi-skilled [and highly-skilled USA citizens]." --- Patrick Joseph Buchanan 1998 _The Great Betrayal: How American Sovereignty and "Social Justice" Are Being Sacrificed to the Gods of the Global Economy_ pg15

  "For what man is there who is at all hasty in forming an opinion, who would not think that the being a husbandman (georgia/[agricultural scientist]), and the occupying one's self in cultivating the ground (he gesergasia/[farm laborer]), were the same thing? And yet in real truty, not only are these things not the same, but they are even very much separated from one another, so as to be opposed to, and at variance with one another. For a man without any skill may labour at taking care of the land; but if a man is called a husbandman, he, from his mere name, is believed to be no un-skilled man, but a farmer [agriculturalist; not in the French usage of tenant farmer] of experience, in as much as his name (georgos), has been elevated from agricultural skill (georgike techne), of which he is the name-sake. And besides all this, we must likewise consider this other point, that the tiller of the ground (ho ges ergates) looks only to one end, namely, to his wages; for he is altogether a hireling, and has no care whatever to till the land well. But the husbandman (he georgos) would be glad also to contribute something of his own, and to spend in addition some of his private resources for the sake of improving the soil, and of avoiding blame from those who understand the business; for his desire is to derive his revenues every year not from any other source, but from his agricultural labours, when they have been brought into a productive state." --- Philo Judaeus of Alexandria & Charles Duke Yonge, L. Cohn, P. Wendland, Gregory Sterling & James Ernest 1993 _The Works of Philo: Complete and UnAbridged_ pg174 "On Husbandry"/"De Agricultura" paragraphs I/3-5
