oh that can be done in 3 easy steps.

1. win a world war that destroys the economy of every other country in the world for a decade.

2. destroy about the past 50 years of technology and all knowledge of how manufacture it.

3. Kill 90% of people over retirement age to lower demand for housing, healthcare costs, and retirement benefits.

In the modern world with modern technology there's a lot less productive work out there for people without specialized education. We could do a better job of training more people for trades jobs (e.g. plumbers, electricians etc), and removing college requirements from some professions (e.g. med school and law school could probably be college level education rather than post college) but anyone saying that we're going back is just lying.
