A Mess on the Ladder of Success – Adam Davidson at the NYTimes
Planet Money is a wonderful show, but the gang there (including Davidson) doesn’t always get it right. There’s a good point to this article (be mobile!) but it’s not so simple.
- Sure, we can see a long-term trend in the graphic, but we can see a big effect due to the housing crisis, more than Davidson admits.
- Is it so simple as saying poetry and history majors can’t get jobs? I wonder; these aren’t areas of study that translate to marketing, for example?
