Boo hoo hoo. The author of the article spent a lot of time on fancy graphics he should have been spending on the education status of the very people the article is about. Businesses are STARVED for skilled labor, but a degree in underwater basket weaving or cultural studies doesn't get one employed in the real world making anything above minimum wage.

    In my area I see signs for signing bonuses and tuition reimbursement for low-level service jobs. The economy is strong right now. There are opportunities for people willing to work and learn.

    They demand very high pay and if you don’t give it to them they call you racist and sexist and other offensive but untrue things.

    Don't forget "Gender Studies"

    Although I assume they are getting snapped up by HR departments of corporations hell bent to concentrate on "diversity and inclusion".
