Bakersfiled is a college graduate community? No Walmart, no Mc
Donald, ...?

Unemployed PhD's have about the same income as unemployed dropouts.

In the recession of '71, a lot of CA aerospace engineers were flipping
burgers and pumping gas. Unfortunately, there are no longer any
gas-pumping jobs.

So what? What's your point here?

I'm merely responding to Jessica that unemployed college graduates
hurt as much as unemployed anyone else. Plenty of college graduates
shop at Wal-Mart and eat at McDonald's. Some grads have mundane jobs
with both corporations while seeking and hoping for more challenging
work.
