Bottom line: today, there are simply too many educated potential laborers to expect jobs to keep up with demand.
Maybe. It would be interesting to think of the consequences of having a situation where there are systematically more laborers than work.
In theory, this means that everyone can work less, or perhaps not even work at all, while we are still able to produce enough food, etc. to give everybody a reasonable life. In practice we seem to end up in a completely different situation: those who have work are rich, those who don't become very poor.
