Good sentiment. I'm all for lifelong learning. But decades of programs and research make it clear. Training/ed does not solve issue at all.https://twitter.com/RichardHaass/status/845993439300898817 …

Solid finding: adult ed/training does not result in better wages or jobs at scale. Issue is lack of jobs to feasibly train for as an adult.

"education matters" has little to do with adult retraining. Also even ed matters to the degree there are good jobs to be had.

Nothing wrong with more education. It helps, always, and is a good thing. Just won't somehow solve the future of jobs crisis.
