If I were in college, I’d be getting ready for several years of grad school if the bank would give you money. This is downright depressing.
The jobs in that chart are basically the ones that can’t be sent to Red China, Mexico, and India.
I saw a sign on a building in Waco several years ago that read: Colon Massage Therapy. I thought, what a depressing job.
UGH! Really?! That’s insane!
What is really sad is that the incomes for most of the jobs are less than what one can “earn” on welfare once all the welfare, food-stamp, subsidized housing, etc is factored in.
Being very closely tied to a top notch college I knew the answer easy.
Nursing or anything medical related really.
Accountants
People with these degrees get recruited HARD and nearly always have jobs waiting for them before they have even graduated.
good observation.
they are called “location dependent jobs” and they are the safest fields to go into.
Never plan to do anything that could potentially be done in some 3rd world hell hole for cheaper.
And taking care of old people and harvesting either their savings or recycling tax dollars from themselves (that should work well).
More of producing nothing of value.
I don’t see the retail sales bit.... I think brick and mortar stores will soon be changing dramatically. Were all consumers like me, it would almost all be sourced from the internet. As that grows I doubt home delivery can continue like it is now.
Would you like fries with that?
Obama’s Amerika.................
Things really haven't changed much today. I am a hiring manager these days and I pull most of my new hires out of technical schools. I've hired some with college degrees but they tend to have high expectations for salary (have to pay off those loans) and don't expect to get their hands dirty because they have degrees, don't you know.
Nursing schools are the same. I think they have a placement rate in the high 90s for their graduates. Nothing to be ashamed about being a nurse. Even if you are a male. It's a good career that pays very well.
This is Agenda 21. Everywhere you look Agenda 21 grows legs. No one can tell me there isn't some sort of extraterrestrial force directing all of this. What society builds a GIANT health care gestapo for peaceful purposes?

The kid should pursue a curricula leading to a professorship at Hilldale.
Both my daughter and daughter-in-law are hospital nurses, 25 and 29 years old. One advantage they also have is that they only work 3 days per week for full time (3 12-hour shifts plus overlap). With the right scheduling, they can get decent chunks of time off (several days in a row) without even using any earned time off.
Fastest Growing Job in America? Brokeback Dancing!

Raise the import tariffs and put Americans back to work.
Demographics are going to continue to drive more people towards healthcare jobs. But we are not going to be able to afford healthcare jobs without some industry to produce wealth. We are dissaving to afford healthcare.
Healthcare doesn’t produce anything and is a drain on wealth. Healthcare can protect our most important wealth producing assets, people. But those people need jobs to produce wealth.
