Watch as a College Degree Goes from Rare to Super Common in 40 Years

Watch as a College Degree Goes from Rare to Super Common in 40 Years | TheBlaze.com:
"The dramatic increase in educational attainment might seem like good news, but many graduates have been left in debt and without skills needed to seize good jobs — if those jobs exist in the first place.
The Project on Student Debt estimated seven in 10 recent college graduates carried student debt, with an average total of nearly $30,000 each.
College costs have risen astronomically over the past few decades, while PBS pegged the percentage of American jobs that require bachelor’s degrees to be somewhere between 20 and 35 percent — meaning the U.S. economy might not have work for many more college grads."
