    It’s kind of wild how many PhD positions there are for so few jobs. Maybe they should just start limiting how many PhDs can graduate in a year in the country to however many jobs there are. Create some sort of stability in the market and limit the number of young people wasting 10+ years of their lives in a field where they may not be able to build a career. Similar to how med schools limit numbers to stay proportional to the number of residency positions.
