Why don't people with diplomas have a job in X (place)?
It sounds as a suggestion not the reason behind a problem, isn't it?

Informally, suggestions are often phrased in the form of a question.
eg Why don't you sit down?

But the suggestion is usually directed to the listener (ie you, not they).
And it often involves an action.
