It's pretty horrible out there. When I graduated from law school in 1994, you couldn't get a job to save your life either. I was unemployed throughout the majority of my twenties and thirties. Laid off three times. Didn't get a good steady, well-playing job until I turned 40. And it's with a public agency and in a union, so protected.
Granted I didn't have huge loans. School was about $3000 a semester, dirt cheap compared to what it is today. Even my undergraduate, which was pricey back then, isn't in comparison to what it would be now.
I can't believe it costs $32,000 to go to a state or community college in NY. And $52-60,000 to go to a private school. That's insane.
But I'm not sure how we can lower those costs...without lowering teacher's salaries and other expenses.
