This is a sign of things to come.Job qualifications have been drastically modified so that community college grads can now get the jobs that used to require a bachelors degree.They are willing to work themselves up in the ranks vs having to get a lot of money from jump street to pay off their loans.The best thing is to keep getting food stamps after they graduate.They'll need them.
