Rising educational standards mean that for a lot of jobs a high school degree is not good enough anymore. An increase in the work force, from one family earner to two, is a sign of progress. Its also a sign that both parents might have to work to achieve the lifestyle one parent could achieve previously.
Its easy to look at one side of the coin and ignore the other. You can’t have your cake and eat it, too.
- xienze 6y ago> Rising educational standards mean that for a lot of jobs a high school degree is not good enough anymore. I’d argue it’s more about _lowered_ educational standards. A high school education ain’t what it used to be and colleges are trying their damnedest to get every single person they can through the doors (and keep the cash flowing). Pretty soon a bachelor’s degree is going to be worthless as well.
