So…what our society needs is more high school dropout, and kids who don’t attend college. I’m serious. If you look at the BLS report below, Table 2, you’ll see that 18 of the 20 jobs that will see the largest growth 2010-2020 don’t require any college, and, in many cases, not even a high school diploma. Only two require a college degree.

Luckily, our schools are really good at producing dropouts. “Meeting the needs of the 21st Century.”
