It just shows stats and not what opportunities are available.
was born near the 70's and I now have far more opportunities than I did when I left school. As I've stated elsewhere, disadvantaged kids have more opportunities now than then - what stats don't show is the apathy people have towards wanting to be socially mobile.

Do you have any evidence of your statements apart from the anecdote about no one wanting to work for you?

I'm working in a hit n miss signal area...

A quick google scholar or other database will fetch up loads....

Interesting site. Looking for solutions :)

Doesn't detract from the issues with youth unemployment though :p

The blog post you linked to doesn't, in any way, prove your assertion.

But as pointed out by prole, we are now post fact and proof, statistics, evidence and experts don't matter. No one wanted to work for you and the place stank of skunk therefore it is the fault of lazy kids who have it better than you ever did.

As we all know, the feckless yooth of today can't buy a house because they spend all their money on smartphones and plasma TVs.

And the immigrants did it...

Hooray for the ignorant.
