Author Jeff Selingo appeared on Friday’s edition of Breitbart News Daily to talk about his new book, There Is Life After College: What Parents and Students Should Know About Navigating School to Prepare for the Jobs of Tomorrow.
Host Stephen K. Bannon said today’s young people are looking at “a pretty bleak future,” in which the “participation-trophy generation” learns that made-to-order careers are notwaiting for them after the graduate college, as they were told to expect all their lives.
“Kids hate capitalism, because capitalism ain’t working for them,” as Bannon put it, capturing the sense of disillusionment that prompted so many young people to strike up a romance with socialism.
“No doubt about it,” Selingo agreed. “The basic problem now is that almost 50 percent of recent college graduates are under-employed. They’re in jobs that don’t even require a bachelor’s degree.”

Thanks to Democrats taxing jobs overseas and demonizing oil and coal stifling the economy...If a Republican wins the economy improves overnight.
...let alone a bachelors degree in Women's Studies, African American Studies, or Fashion Merchandising...
I would never take a job unless my employer provided the college necessary for that specific job AFTER I was hired.My employer did exactly that,and I remained at that job with the St of Md for 30 years.I never regretted going to college,but I never would have if the job had not required it.
