‘Cheers’ star John Ratzenberger warns: More skilled labor jobs are needed to ‘save civilization’

John Ratzenberger, famous for his roles in "Cheers" and "Toy Story," is advocating for the importance of skilled labor jobs in the U.S. He warns that the lack of these jobs and the skills to perform them could severely impact civilization. Ratzenberger highlighted that many young people today lack basic skills like using tools, which could have dire consequences for society. According to a Deloitte and Manufacturing Institute report, the U.S. manufacturing sector could face a significant workforce shortage, potentially leaving up to 1.9 million jobs unfilled by 2033, which would affect the country's global competitiveness.
