  High school isn't preparing kids for work either. Millions of HS grads need to work right away. They to have been trained in a field that's hiring.

  They also need job placement because job portals silently delete 100% of applications w/o job history.

  Big businessmen always say this. They're trying to externalize training costs to the job seekers, rather than paying for specialized training themselves.
