I disagree.  My children, nephews and nieces, and many of their friends either could not find employment in Canada commiserate with their degrees (but have found suitable employment in the US) or are underemployed, or were underemployed for the first few working years.  Look around and ask, how many of the recent graduates that touch your life are employed in jobs that pay them enough.  I am tired of the recently retired, or in one case, someone I know has been retired for twelve years and is still doing their old job under contract in a municipal government position.  Retire already.Consult if you want. or better still, give of your time and talents and volunteer.  Give back.
