From my personal experience people in the US don't have a lot of different jobs to choose from but we really don't. Unless you have the education and connections for the most part you're relegated to retail. It's hard to even get into management nowadays. Sure there's job growth but for the most part it's for minimum wage retail jobs or salary jobs that are for Dollar General where your work 80 hours to the Bone.
Most of my family Works Blue Collar construction jobs because they pay more consistently and they're easier to get into then the white collar stuff that I work in
Would you mind expanding on how there's a limited job market in the EU? I have the standard American perspective of the EU of being this nigh utopian place of freedom and competition even though I know it's actually not like that. The EU does definitely help with those type of regulations. The United States answers to the people with the most money typically the companies. That's why the iPhones would never be USB C if it was up to Americans.
