Right now there is a massive skilled trades shortage. Why? Because we're not lining up our schooling with the jobs that are available on the other side. And then we turn around and say 'jobs are disappearing.' Strange.

It's not that we're not lining up our schooling but it's the demand for 'higher education'. You can teach trades in public schools until you're blue in the face, private schools will just open up and take everyone away. Even in the current state, private schools are making a killing.
