I believe the whole labor model has been completely altered. There is a large percentage of the population who have nothing of value to offer society. Partly that is because of broken schools, partly because of broken families, partly because of broken cultures, and partly because more jobs today require a decent IQ whereas in the past people with low IQs could still find a fair amount of work.

Many reasons. But the bottom line is that a large percentage of the population have nothing of value to offer society. And we haven't figured out what to do with those people yet. Currently, we send them a check every month and we hope that they just sit on a couch and stare at an electronic box of one sort or another.

Cut out the checks and let them go hungry. they’ll learn to work.

The only possible way to employ them would be to cut out welfare payments and rescind minimum wage laws. Most of these people are stupid, but they're not unintelligent, if you know what I mean. If conditions are right, they could be trained and made useful.

Yep. Kids have been told by parents that college brainwashing is much better than working 30 years in some plant. These kids lack critical skills needed.
