The government in many ways is instrumental in keeping people unemployed. I am currently working a lesser job because the government in requiring me to challenge their exam, even though I have worked in a similar environment for 8+ years in Canada. The government is the problem, and in many cases it is not doing enough to address the job market for many skilled individuals who are subject to contract work, layoffs, offshoring and job losses. We are going 100kph and are heading for a brick wall with the next generation. The quantum computer and robotics apparently will be so good in 15-20 years that humans will be out performed by robots. What is government going to do then? At the pace government moves we should be doing something now.
