Yup. A couple of my nephews decided it was better to learn a trade. They will takeover their father's business sooner than later. Even their sister decided to take a bookkeeping course over a four year degree.
The America, and the American Military, that you once knew is gone.

I don't regret becoming an electrician. Made decent money and a good retirement and wasn't stuffed in an office. It's not for everybody but neither is college.

There are definitely way too many people with garbage degrees and far too few people with marketable skills in the trades. I'm not sure how to fix that. Colleges pricing themselves out of business may be one way but I worry about the work ethic of recent generations. A lot of them don't even drive.
