In my opinion-- it's a sign of how far our society has fallen. A friend of mine has two degrees, she works in a Stater Bros meat department. My grandfather had an AA from a city college, and supported his entire family, and retired at 55 with pensions, investments, etc. His wife is still alive at 88 and living off the money he earned. She's never worked in her life. My parents, retired at 65, and have a very very comfortable retirement until Calpers dies. I, struggle to find employment that isn't "slavery with extra steps", and will never, ever be able to retire.
