Employment 2014
The employment outlook is good for bachelor's prepared people and those with some college or vocational training....but where will the employment opportunities be for the mass employment of low skilled, high school drop-out. What do you see for the future of employment and where do you see the new opportunities for employment in the US?
Health
The health care in the United States is the most expensive per person, nearly twice the second ranked country. Yet the health outcomes and projected life expectancy ranks the US 28th in the world. How can our health care system improve to provide a better potential health for our citizens at less costs? What do you think?

Immigration
The migration of people across the globe is based on a simple premise....Stay and starve. Very motivating if you are trying to feed your family, better your quality of life, or flee from oppressive conditions. The host country for migrant populations both benefit from the availability of a new labor force as well as face the challenges of assimilating that culture into the exisiting culture. Read the Perfect Storm monograph on Immigration and give us your opinion.
Food and Water Insecurities
The global population is expected to exceed 9 billion by 2050. The food and water supply for the population is already limited, contaminated, and is unequally distributed to meet the population needs of the 6 billion inhabitants. The question becomes how will meet the need....new technology...better conservation of current resources....higher pollution standards. What is your view?
