In this age where there is an emphasis on UNIVERSITY education, it seems that there is a real problem in the world's biggest economy, America.
There are 14 million people unemployed, which equates to slightly over 9% of unemployment. So what has happened?
There an article recently that pointed out that education is flawed. With such high importance placed on university education, people forget that there are other expertise jobs out there that really do not require a bachelor's degree. Professions like plumbing and many other trades skills require a different type of education.
Also the emphasis on the theoretical aspects have been overdone causing companies not wanting to hire the 3.2 million job vacancies (US jobs) due to the lack of skills.
This problem, if rectified, would bring benefits to society as a whole.
