re: U.S. College Major with Highest Unemployment Rate...

Are you saying an English major would make more as a plumber than a non English major would? I don’t get your point.

My point is that it was a list of majors not jobs. A persons major doesn’t determine their job. English major isn’t a job. They become teachers, lawyers, office drones, plumbers, salesmen, electricians, baristas, poets, doctors, etc.

And that on average a person with an English degree, no matter their job, earns more than the average plumber (but not by much because plumbing is a good job and requires a skill and training).

The information I provided is from the bureau of labor statistics.

Hope that helps.
