Between labor laws and business liability policies most kids can't find any employment other than fast food until they are 18.
Saw some information lately that showed the largest employer in each state. For almost half the states it was walmart. Just how much education is needed to work most retail jobs? What portion of our economy is retail/fast food?
When public education really got rolling was late 1800's as people were trying to get the slightly higher educated factory management and technical jobs developing in the industrial revolution. Most of the population didn't need much education in order to work a factory line somewhere or on the farms of the day. We then increased our technology and needed more financial and research careers.
I think we have come full circle and are back to a position where most jobs just don't need that much education. Not saying these are good jobs though.
Interesting too that in many states the largest employer was a university system. Colleges will take anyone with a diploma and money. How educated the students are when they get there is only a frustration to the professors, the system works better if they have to retake an extra year of courses and pay more tuition in the long run. And when they get out.... welcome to the world where retail/fast food is the largest sector.
