One reason I believe in the university system is that they make you get an education that isn't horribly niched.
A broad education in unemployable subjects makes you as unwanted as a niche education.

Don't mind me, I'm still annoyed that Science majors needed to take six Arts courses, but Arts majors only needed four Science courses, *and* they got special dumbed-down courses so the scary sciences wouldn't tax their brains, but I had to struggle through opaque analyses of Othello.

*cough* But I digress.

There's a reason I haven't written a fiver in about a year and a half. Perpetual unemployment kills the funnybone.
