Interview with Prof. Roger Martin, Dean, Rotman School of Management, & Chairman, Institute for Competitiveness and Prosperity on Creating Conditions for Ontario's Prosperity. Presented at Canadian Business Outlook 2009.
Example: July 2005, USA: 207,000 jobs created. Major categories include 30,000 food servers and bar tenders; 28,000 health care and social assistance; 12,000 real estate; 8,000 transit and ground passenger transportation; 50,000 retail trade.
Who needs a university degree to wait tables and serve drinks, to build houses, to work as hospital orderlies, bus drivers, and sales clerks?
What is the point of higher education when the job opportunities in the economy do not require it?
The GDP per capita in the US is misleading, it's all tilted to the super rich, the average middle class in the US is poorer than the middle class in Canada.
