And yet we also hear again and again that a college degree doesn't get you shit anymore, and the country is facing mass shortages of plumbers, electricians, nurses, and all the other skilled trades. I think it's more just that the economy has sucked overall for a good while now, and white men without college degrees have fewer social supports and coping mechanisms than other demographic groups.
