Minneapolis: Special High School for Immigrants Cries the Blues as Somali Enrollment Drops

“I feel hurt by the fact that a specific demographic at Wellstone has been taken away from us.â€
When I read this story at Minnesota Public Radio I couldn’t help but think about buggy whips. You know the expression about how as times change, so too do industries when the demand for certain commodities disappears.
But, the big difference is that with government programs, those benefiting certain people personally (with jobs etc.), instead of dying a natural death, taxpayer dollars are found to keep the government equivalent of the buggy whip industry alive.
