They just want to be grifters like Trump? https://www.newsweek.com/american-men-dont-want-work-anymore-1897567 A larger factor may be men's declining participation in higher education. While women historically were excluded from universities, they now outpace men at college roughly 60 to 40 percent. And for those without a college degree, unemployment is far more likely. Those with only a high school diploma have an unemployment rate of 3.9 percent compared to just 2.2 percent of those who achieved a bachelor's degree, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

It is not hard at all to get into college. Many (most?) colleges are essentially open admissions. The problem is staying on task and sticking with something. And men are failing in that.
