There is no shortage of things for people to do - especially if you are young.
On one hand the government cannot figure out how to pay for rising education cost, healthcare cost, doing simple fixing of roads, etc.
On the other hand young people who are more than qualified for all sorts of work are unable to find work - or make ends meet.

The problem is easy to explain. Look at the school.
