Those that have that particular door shut in their face are probably liking the fact they have those "uneducated" jobs to fall back upon. If those go away, well I guess the armed forces get those new recruits they're desperate for. Convenient.
Some will be at a disadvantage, but that is nothing new. Besides, invention is born of necessity. Many will say this applies to classic invention such as tools and transportation and the sort. But it also applies to adaptation. People will find ways for education. Countries will find ways to educate them. I don't worry about things like that because I count on mankind's adaptive ways.
