At last, They admit there are Tech era problems especially with minorities. [View all]

They, the media, know that schools will be a major problem. How, basically if your kid can't handle calculus level your kid is toast. Now maybe you start relating to Cyber-era jobless dilemma.

Corporations know that only the top 10% of students will be job ready and worst yet, needed.

NBC article:

The bigger problem is the number of jobs that will not be enough for 25-40% of the population.

My solution is to lower the SocSec age to 50yr, that will give us at least 10yr to adapt the Cyber-era.
