Not that relevant to the point being made but I hate how employment statistics start from age 16. Being that almost all 16 year olds are in school and living with their parents, they have an excuse. It kind of skews the average compared to if they started at like 18.
Absolutely agree. In most situations where 16 year olds are actually still in school they could work a part time job at most while maintaining grades and any extra curriculars. Moreover, if that same demographic is functionally illiterate you're definitely looking at some skewed numbers. 18 would definitely be a much better age to start.
Being 16 and illiterate, 18 and illiterate, 35 and illiterate - it's all one and the same.
That's why they all rap, chant and recite verse. They (except for a talented few on the far right side of the Bell curve) aren't built to handle anything harder.

Don't you mean "don't count the darkies at all"?
