EDIT: I would also ask what % of employers were requiring a post-secondary education for jobs with salaries comparable to today's.
Add to all of that having a generation that accumulated too much debt and saved far, far too little for retirement to the point where they cant retire and they're holding on to a lot of jobs that are unavailable to the next generation because of it.
