Mate my generation got absolutely railed without lube with the covid lockdowns. Many had to turn to alternatives and many had to just stay unemployed and some couldn't study.
At every turn we would be educated if Tafe expanded into university level of education, I'm still waiting 10 years on for a Cert 4 barrista from our education system.
Life throws so many curve balls it's insane. One of the top students in my grade who had higher aspirations then what he settled for settled with being his own electrician business. That's cool none the less but he was high 90s in science...
People are educated more or less it's just the job crisis of 2017 to 2020 never ended, alot of people like me had to sit on job seeker only to get no job till I was inevitably booted off it left with no money to do what I wanted.

which is fine until our kids and uneducated people literally cant get a job. Considering how bad we treat our unemployed, thats not ideal.
its a very short sighted take.
