No wonder this nation is screwed! Check out how many students graduated with these degrees in the 2008-2009 timeframe! And to think that thousands of students are in DEBT over this crap!
Chemistry is a great degree and most chemists make over $100k per year. Also agriculture and horticulture is a great degree for anyone who wants to go into farming.
In fact, many successful people I know (lawyers, business owners, actuaries, and doctors) have undergrad liberal arts degrees...I have a friend who went to Middlebury for his undergrad in Theatre and then got a Wall Street job after getting his MBA at Wharton. I don't think anyone would say his degree held him back.
If he had stopped with the theater degree he would have not gotten his Wall Street job. He went from one of the most useless, to one that could get him a usable degree when he went for his masters.

A Chemistry degree does not make a chemist. Find me a bona fide chemist making $100K on a bachelors only and i'll concede your point. I don't think they exist.
There has not been a "nursing shortage" for a number of years now. For one thing, the recession brought many nurses out of retirement as their spouses lost jobs, and caused many to go from part-time to full-time for the same reason. For another, nursing school enrollments have been rising over the years, as people have figured out that it is a career that offers a pretty good salary. Supposedly a large number of nurses are in their 50s/60s, and will soon start to retire. Till then, it can be hard to get a job in certain places. That's not just me blathering as usual, that's what I've read in the nursing literature.
you should know better than to believe that stuff.
Funny thing is that according to that list journalism is one of the most useless. Didn't a journalist write an article you're quoting here? Not so useless after all, rotfl
