America has fostered a culture in which many feel they should not have to work to achieve results. Some employers complain that recent graduates are lazy and unmotivated. The business world, in particular, has lowered its expectations of new college graduates entering the workforce. The same jobs require fewer skills and less education than they did in previous decades. While this phenomenon may trace its origins to the fact that businesses received less-qualified candidates, it has turned into a vicious cycle. The fewer qualifications the business world demands, the less education our youth pursue and the lower educational standards become.
