Innovation and creativity in science engineering technology and math will be the drivers of tomorrow's economy what's the word four letters jobs and if you are not up for Tissa pin on that Frontier you will trail behind it and possibly get left find a tire most American Kids opt out of the harder math and science classes you know 1000 $80,000 you need a lot of Calculus math needs better marketing I don't know how to hire a marketing firm or something there people who say I'll never need this math these trig identities from 10th grade or 11th maybe you never learn them here is here's the catch  whether or not you ever again use the massachu burned in school learn to math  establish a wiring in your brain that didn't exist before and it's the wiring in your brain that makes you the problem solver scientist 9 the universe shows me the first visit to the local planetary of the Hayden planetarium in New York City ever since then had ask me what I want to be when I grow up that annoying question that adults always ask I said I would have said and astrophysicist they don't want to be running the Haven even if you don't want to become a scientist minimum you should ask of yourself demand of yourself said you become scientifically literate better yet scientifically literate and mathematically live engines or problem solving World connected jobs and the bottom line is money valuable to an employer because companies want to innovate in the company that companies the what innovator on the vine so the connection between stem fields  and Financial stability of a Nation is what needs to be established that connection somehow broken people don't see it connection dare I say that maybe we're not trained to think that way which way to pick if you do anything let me be cause and effect how's your math if you do so you get to innovate and invent new Industries new economies to invent new economies and buddy has jobs tomorrow that's a chain of events that's not equals B you got to go to three other variables to get to
