Have We Lost A Generation?

In last week's issue of Business Week magazine
I was captivated by the article, 'Lost Generation'.

During difficult economic times we are releasing college
graduates to a society with less job prospects than the
generation before them. These young people are
straddled with student loan debt and no means to
pay it off plus take care of themselves.

Then we compound that with only temporary jobs and
no health care and these young men and women now
fall into the healthcare issue in this country.

How do we keep our nation on the top of world countries
when we can't let our young and brightest realize their
dreams and passions?

Are schools assisting students who should join the service sector?
Great jobs in auto mechanics, cosmetology,nursing etc. are
vital to a functioning economy. These careers can jumpstart
a terrific working life if presented in the proper light. Maybe
those who went to college and have no possibility of finding
a job would have ventured into the service sector with better
results and less debt.
