Well does anyone here actually have any knowledge about this program and how effective it actually is? I found these stats from this website that says they should just eliminate the program because it is a waste of taxpayers money.

Compared to non-participants, Job Corp participants were less likely to earn a high school diploma (7.5 percent versus 5.3 percent);

Compared to non-participants, Job Corp participants were no more likely to attend or complete college;

Four years after participating in the evaluation, the average weekly earnings of Job Corps participants were a mere $22 higher than the average weekly earnings of the control group; and

Employed Job Corps participants earned only $0.22 more in hourly wages compared to employed control group members.

I looked at the actual study they pulled these from and found them there, but also there were other conclusions that were favorable towards the program. But I don't really care enough or have the time to go through them.
