doing with less (just like Obama promised) - fewer jobs, higher requirements

[grggngll]

The college degree is becoming the new high school diploma: the new minimum requirement, albeit an expensive one, for getting even the lowest-level job.

Consider the 45-person law firm of Busch, Slipakoff & Schuh here in Atlanta, a place that has seen tremendous growth in the college-educated population. Like other employers across the country, the firm hires only people with a bachelor's degree, even for jobs that do not require college-level skills.

This prerequisite applies to everyone, including the receptionist, paralegals, administrative assistants and file clerks. Even the office "runner" — the in-house courier who, for $10 an hour, ferries documents back and forth between the courthouse and the office — went to a four-year school.

And that is the way it should be. If a college degree didn't give a candidate a leg up on the rest of the applicants, why get a degree? College's are a business that hire lot's of people with degrees. Companies benefit from people who have higher education.

This trend has been occurring and building for well over a decade.

Yes, I remember now. Moochelle made a point of setting the expectations of college grads really low.

Something like: "go do community work"

What did you want het to say, go get a 300k a year no - show job from your husbands campaign contributors like I did?

Even though the Obama's have demonstrated their toxic natures over and over again and continue to ruin the country the low information Obama voter still loves him and Moochelle. Reminds me of the jews who freely walked into gas chambers when it would have been easy to overpower the few guards.

Maybe she could have touched on the finer points of getting sweet real estate deals?

Unexpectedly, those that voted for 0 got pushed out of the labor market.

At least they will have free 0-care.
