Is your country over educated?HollandYes: everyone wants a university degree but the demand for white collar jobs is much lower than the supply, so many people are underemployed
why do people want university degrees?
>>205720865Why don't they pay more for blue collar jobs?
>>205720873because long ago a university degree was a free pass to a significantly better lifestyle. Now they made universities easier and less exclusive so that is not true anymore but people still think it is
>>205720936>but people still think it iswhy? don't they have working eyes?
>>205720922they do though. A lowly plumber or bricklayer makes a fortune. You can be braindead and do something stupid for a living and make more than a phd.
>>205720941People are pressured into university by their parents and teachers who lived in times where university was a good decision. Their opinions are slow to change because that is all they know and it rubs off on their kids.
>>205720997oh ok, so they're just ignorant
>>205720865Probably, our economic isn't very sophisticated. NZ college graduates earn lass than 30% more than an uneducated person. Which is substantially lower degree wage premium than other developed countries.
