re: There's a skills gap coming that will reshape the economy

It's intentional. Stupid people are easier to control and manipulate than smart people. Smart people ask questions. Stupid people do as they are told. Public schools today are designed to mass produce stupid people whose only purpose in life is to do the manual and menional jobs the elites do not want to do. Meanwhile the elites send their kids to the highest quality (and most expensive and hardest to get into) private schools to learn how to control and manipulate the stupid people.
