I don't see anything in the article to indicate that governments (multiple) have overestimated anything. Which governments? What were their estimates exactly?

I don't see anything in the article to indicate that governments (multiple) have overestimated anything. Which governments? What were their estimates exactly? This article just throws some factoids together to form paragraphs - not making any coherent points in the process. The article concludes with this: Governments are right to fret about training future workers Who is fretting? What does that even mean? This sloppy journalism merely plays the good old tune of 'government isn't doing the right thing' (a form of 'someone else is at fault'). It'd do more good to look in the mirror and ask if you're doing a good job and start from there. Don't worry about governments, start with yourself. In the case of journalism, start with doing some research, coming up with a stance, having arguments from multiple sides and then presenting them in a compelling manner.
