My solution is to provide a national program where we offer centers that can test people's aptitudes and interests and then set them on a track toward improving their relevant skills and knowledge so that they can find gainful employment. I'd like these centers to be open to all Americans over 16, and I'd like for the testing and education to be fully funded by the federal government. And I'd like the business community to frequently report on which kinds of skills and knowledge are most needed, and are likely to be needed down the road.

I should add that local and state governments along with the federal government will also have needs to fill. Non-profits, too.
You mean as far as gainful employment? Yah, if that's what YOu mean...
