Where / how do they learn a trade? I blame my baby boomer generation with this effort that "everyone has to go to college"...what a bunch of crap. High schools no longer have shop classes (mine had both wood and metal), Dads do not work on stuff either because they don't have the skills / interest / tools & equipment or just too busy with other hobbies. In my industry if a mechanic is not making a six figure salary they are lazy.
Yup

I think the main changes we will see:

More paranoia.
More acceptance of government intrusion - aka gun restrictions, shutdowns, travel restriction, business control.
More acceptance of national debt.
More push for a higher minimum wage/"living wage".
More push for government-run healthcare.
More acceptance of government bailouts.

Only changes I expect is hopefully Trump will order the government to stock up on emergency supplies. That should last until 2025 when we have a Dimocrat for prez. I seriously doubt if the vast majority of the country learns to keep a basic stock on hand.
