that was my point. you can be a real estate sales guy or broker without a degree. those types of industries gave a lot of folks work.
the type of job options they now have are extremely limited. 30 years ago they would be in factories. today they’re in wal-mart or some similar situation.

Plumbers, Carpenters, Car mechanics, Electricians, Handy men/General contractors, Builders, Heavy machinery operators, etc.
All of these are “not in manufacturing”, all of these are capable of “6-figure incomes”, all of these are harmed by protectionism, none of these benefit from overpaying for goods.
And, lest I forget, none of these require a college degree.
