Surely there are many “actually useful” jobs that don’t require further education?

- doikor 9y agoIf we removed the food stamps and other benefits given to low pay workers and their employers I doubt. Just about anything worth doing needs an education of some kind. There are some that don't really need much/any education (sales, etc) but those usually need a certain kind of personality to be effective at. And the few that truly anyone could do without any education and are paying enough to be productive to the society (not funded by tax payer money through various benefits) are very rare.

(2) Workers that do other, much more productive things 95% of the time. (3) Machines. I assume that the list above is sorted by increased probability, on a 5-year horizon.
