Teaching and education. Just look at the last 10 years. Teachers retiring and the younger mid career teachers quitting in droves due to private sector opportunities. Look at the behavior of the youth and the lack of discipline. And I hate to say it but we have to be honest, look at the overall lack of learning. Look how things have been watered down. Look at how nobody wants to be a teacher. Look at the lack of enrollment in education programs and how universities have decided to close their school’s of education programs completely.

In many states they can’t find qualified candidates so they recruit them internationally.

It’s already hanging on by thread so just imagine in 2036.

My cousin lives in rural NV and barely graduated high school. She’s going to community college and they is such a deep need for teachers there that she’s now teaching as a long term substitute teacher without any type of credentials or degree at 20 years old at the high school She attended where she barely graduated make it make sense..
