Serious degradation of the native-born Americans—moral, cultural, economic and physical degradation. No school, or college, would cure that, or teach that. It is a cultural "education" learned at home and everywhere. Vast majority of jobs require little more than discipline and willingness to work, something that has degraded greatly among the bottom half of the native-born population in America. Discipline starts at birth and since 1960s Americans have been breeding undisciplined children under New Age theories and to boost self-esteem. During debt-induced booms even marginal workers with poor habits get jobs, especially soft service jobs. In a tough economy that lies ahead only good workers would be able to keep and get jobs. A higher and higher % of the able-bodied working-age Americans would get supported by welfare. Economy would keep getting less and less efficient. Can you spell long-term decline? Illegal immigrants from Mexico and some other countries are here primarily because they are needed. Also, what % of small businesses, the American jobs machine, are first and second generation immigrants?
It is all about people's behavior and Americans at the very top and the bottom have been behaving badly. Middle-class workers with good habits would keep getting more and more burdened. We have a bad system and bad culture fully entrenched. Throwing money on education is a waste. Maybe, America needs discipline schools for kids and for adults. I am sure that some of these problems are now present in other countries too.
