John Ratzenberger On Why We're Becoming A Third World Country

We need to inspire the next generation before we run out of people who can make a building and invent things. If we don't come to grips with this problem, we're going to end up like the Roman Empire. When we run out of plumbers, or people who maintain the water system, from the reservoir to the faucet in your house, we become a Third World country.

That's from John Ratzenberger, champion host of "Made in America." You may know him from Cheers, and you'll recognize his voice from Cars and just about any Pixar movie.

He knows we need to make things in America, and to teach our kids the skills they need to work with their hands as well as their heads. We need to get over the idea that if you don't go to college you're not worthwhile.
