Mike Rowe: ‘If You Want To Make America Great Again, You Have To Make Work Cool Again’

‘I know that sounds a little high school but that is where the action is’

EXCERPT:

CARLSON: "Here is the last question. Do you think that we value, as a society, work in a way that we once did? Maybe that's part of the problem." 
ROWE: “At the risk of being glib, I would say, if you really want to make America great again, you have to make work cool again. I know that sounds a little high school but that is where the action is. There is a long list of stuff we can’t control, but it is completely in our power to decide what the definition of what a good job is. That is up to us. If we disparage and malign an entire category of perfectly reasonable opportunities, then it is not the out of work worker who is going to pay the ultimate price. It is people like you and me who are addicted to smooth roads, affordable energy, indoor plumbing and all that stuff.”
