No one takes into account the handouts that it takes to float the boat of all the jobless people here not to mention the crime involved with much of that joblessness. Take the whole picture into one's view and remember, no one is trying to eliminate everything, just balance it out. And as important as STEM is, it is not the end all answer to all employment problems. Not everyone wants to be a rocket scientist.
One reason for jobless people is too much legal and illegal immigration in the last 50 years. Also, drug dealers and HARD drugs hurt the ambition of working age people. Also, it kills many of them in their PRIME earning days.
