With a booming economy, there is a shortage of skilled workers including the crafts, manufacturing, healthcare and sales (didn't see this one coming).

"... the following sectors and roles most at risk for talent shortages between now and 2025:

  • Skilled trades, including electricians, machinists and welders
  • Healthcare, including occupational and physical therapy aides
  • Manufacturing, including production workers and engineers
  • Sales, including professionals with a solid combination of social and cognitive skills
  • Math-related fields, including actuaries and statisticians"

A number of these jobs don't require a university degree, especially, the skilled trades -- community college, or apprenticeships in a union would be the best path.  I'd suggest a couple of basic business courses at a community college later if one wished to start their own business. 

TRUTH -- THE NEW HATE SPEECH!

Black and White American populations are low for any skill set. 
Exactly why the crime rate is down....  

Abortion is the reason we have an unskilled workforce and  the crime rate is down?

That may be the most ignorant thing I've ever seen you post!

 

The reason that the aforementioned skills and professions are suffering such shortages are a failure of the progressive education system, in large part.  Career counselors at the HS level failed to inform young people of such oncoming shortages -- they've been predicted for over a decade, or so.  Further, in the case of the skills, students were encouraged to go to college, no matter the subject matter they majored in.  Supposedly, a degree was the key to future success. Now, there are thousands of graduates with useless majors and a high student debt.  Parents and the students must be held to account, as well.  Students are taking 5 to 6 years to earn what took about four years in the past.
