1. Not unless they are well educated. This just goes to show the importance of higher education. There are only about 7 million young people graduating from college this year in a population of 300 million. There is going to be a terrible shortage of doctors, nurses, teachers and businessmen in no time. Yet the government is doing nothing about making it easier for young people to attend universities. Instead we are fighting a stupid war that is costing us billions of dollars a month to fight. Go figure.
