It's also reflective of the "the trades are for dumb losers" attitude that pervaded this country over the last 20 years or more. When kids are told to go to college, and go to grad school, and don't ever consider being a machinist because they're "lesser"...well, those fields find it very hard to staff themselves. Nursing, police, janitors, teachers, all sorts of government/public sector jobs are trades, and they're all seeing fewer and fewer people go into them.

The few kids these days that actually will become pipefitters/carpenters/nurses/etc will be RICH when they hit 30, because those markets will be pouring money at them.
