While the country obsesses over coding and college degrees, AI is gunning for white-collar jobs—meanwhile, industries can’t find enough welders, electricians, or collision techs to keep the economy running.

Supporters call it a compassionate, realistic solution to an unsustainable problem. Is this the compromise America’s been waiting for—or another political flashpoint?
