The way to fix it, is for there to be so much work out there, thanks to the expansion of the economy, that companies are willing to train someone before they go without.
years ago, you could search for months for an experienced person and never find one (or have to pay them more then your willing to pay). Today that's not the case, and socialism definitely is not the answer in that regard.
I think the biggest short term problem is companies are learning to do more with less people (people working harder, longer, or just with less waist). When the economy does bounce back, a company that learned how to operates as efficiently with 85 people as it used to with 100, is not going to hire those 15 people back.
There are just going to be less jobs out there for a while. If your new or entering a field, it sucks. If you want to fix that, you need someone like Reagan in office, and not someone like Obama.
For all Reagan's faults, he expanded the economy like no other leader in history. Great for people entering the job market.

Exactly. Not all humans are needed.
We have to either create enuff jobs for everybody, or design the society so that those people who aren't needed will still get decent lives.

By society if you mean the people, I agree. If you mean government, then I don't.
We just need to take care of our kids longer, or our parents when they enter late stages of life. We need to give more to food banks, or donate time to build shelters. Government trying to fix the problem, never works.
In the past, in the US, when there was a problem that needed fixing, the last people you thought of for help, was government. Today it's the only people we look to, and how's that going?
