Mike Rowe says America's tradesperson shortage ignores the math
Original: Mike Rowe on America’s great tradesperson shortage: ‘I don’t care what your politics are. Math doesn’t care, either’
Television host and skilled-work advocate Mike Rowe is speaking out about the United States' widening shortage of tradespeople, arguing that the gap between job openings and available workers is a practical problem, not a partisan one. He says political debates over work and education miss the simple arithmetic behind unfilled jobs in plumbing, electrical and other skilled trades.
Why now: Concern over labor shortages in skilled trades is a current economic and political talking point.
