It used to be that almost all graduates coming out of a good college were faced with a choice between accepting a “real job’’ and going for something less sure but perhaps more exciting, more creative. Now, with fewer and fewer such straight entry-level jobs out there, more and more grads don't have any such choice to make. They're getting ready for a non-optional bohemian phase.

The tragedy of higher education today is that too many students borrow big bucks to study gender, ethnic identity, post-modernism, sociology, or similar majors and then wonder why they can't find jobs. The Obama solution? Lock in low student loan rates and encourage these bad choices.
Carlo, excellent article.

Four years ago Obama got the youth vote with "Hope and Change" and a promise of a great future. Instead, they got a person who spent two years focusing on free Heathcare instead of jobs and increasing our deficit to record breaking numbers. We are in a globe economy and this country needs to get it's act together or everyones future is doomed.
