There are so many problems with the world. History will no doubt look back at the last half-decade and talk about how awful it was. Just a few of the ills include: high unemployment, collapsing home prices, violence across the world, and political gridlock that never seems to end.

Young Americans with recent college degrees are particularly exposed to the problems that their parents’ generation created. The unemployment rate for people aged 20 to 24 is nearly 13 percent. This is roughly double the unemployment rate for people 25 and over. No wonder their debt is also exploding.

But there is one group who seems immune to this all: engineers.
