The jobs where no degree is needed for manual work aside from serving burgers have become scarce. Factory labor has mostly been substituted by robots, and it is like that in most fields.
The leftover manual jobs (at least here) you need to endure an apprenticeship for several years to get your journeyman's papers; and to open your own workshop with what you were skilled in, you need to go to a master school for several years first in order to get your knowledge and abilities certified.
So, a lot of schooling plus work for less money than someone earns who will sit on a chair all day, make phone calls and watch a computer monitor.
Unjust.
