The Unemployment Rate among those who actually bothered to get a get a college degree is 5.4% and much lower for those who achieved an advanced degree.

Those who elected not to go to college have also elected to be unemployed.

Pretty difficult to be a "self-made man" like my Father. He was able to self-educate and use his training from working on farm equipment, automotive and general curiosity in learning about how things work to establishing a very nice career, first in design and installation of commercial laundries and secondly as a facilities director of engineering in the hotel industry. Not bad for a guy who went to a country school. "I've met a lot of college-educated-idiots" (quoting my Dad).

Today the first thing they want to know is if you have your bachelor degree. I worked and paid for my own education. It took me awhile to get the BFA.... glad I did. I couldn't even work in my industry without it.

A very deceptive analysis. Shallow as hell.

Go deeper into the data if you dare.
