Mexican youth struggle to find jobs

Young people in Mexico are facing an unemployment rate that is nearly twice the national average.
More than 7 million young Mexicans between the age of 15 and 29 are jobless, "the majority of those of us who graduated from university don't have anywhere to get a full time job", said Paola Alcazar, a young woman struggling to find a job in Mexico.
A recent study found that unemployment is highest among the most educated women.
Al Jazeera's Adam Raney follows the story of one woman's challenge to find a job in Mexico City.

Querrán decir que los jóvenes güevones no encuentran trabajo, puros pretextos. En la empresa donde trabaj no cagamos de la desesperación porque no podemos encontrar ingenieros o un simple electricista.

@WellIAMScottish yeah but theres a flaw..education gives you more than a new job. it gives people the ability to think for themselves, its always students that protest the most.
Besides thats only an american problem for the moment. In Europe you can get free 2rd level education as an e.u member :D

@TheCelebrityOnline
You can thank Monsanto for putting farmers out of business. You can thank the US government and their insane "war on drugs" for shipping drugs into the US (I know what you're up to CIA) and shipping guns to Mexico (I know what you're up to Eric Holder).
It's time to stop blaming the victims and start turning our attention toward those who make these nightmares reality.
