Really, you think the all-time high unemployment rate among recent graduates is because they, as a group, are somehow uniquely unqualified?

I wish I were that arrogant.

The majority of recent graduates just spent 4 years in college instead of gaining relevant experience, so, yes. The economy is tough, they don't stack up to the competition, and adding more schooling wouldn't improve matters.

Their competition probably spent the last 4 years working.
