There is no labor market for graduates of climate "science", behavioral studies, liberal arts, fine arts, grievance studies, and several dozen other useless college majors.
These misguided people could start their careers at the coffee bars and restaurants right out of high school, without the useless degrees that currently qualify them for nothing better.
Now, this article discusses those students who actually have worked and studied to get STEM degrees for which there is an actual market need, yet only half of these graduates can get hired in their field due to the fraudulent visa programs.
That’s actually a smart proposal. While they certainly have dumb policies in some areas, the one thing the Europeans get right in their educational system, certainly the Germans, Dutch, Nordics and some of the French and Belgian provinces, is they put a much bigger emphasis on manual and practical skills for kids early on. Most kids in Germany and France for example don’t actually go to college, instead the educational system and companies get together each year to make an estimate of the jobs and skills most in demand for the next 5 years, and kids are instead encouraged to train in apprenticeships and gain valuable skills.
This is why even with all the dumb things that Angela Merkel has been trying to do do hurt her country, Germany still has the best manufacturing and high level tech in the world, right along Japan, they value and reward the kids who start out early with an interest in apprenticeships without expecting to go to college. Even those who do go to 4-year colleges and grad schools almost always go for practical skills they can use. The colleges in Europe are austere compared to the US, and they don’t have diversity hires or womyn’s studies departments full of navel gazer profs and administrators who get paid 6-figure salaries to put out articles and speeches on how evil the West is. They may do a lot of dumb things over there but they have the right when it comes to using the elementary, secondary schools, apprentcieships, universities and grad schools to actually train their kids in things they can use.
