Aug 9 - Low-Paying Jobs are Here to Stay

Lol at people hating government intervention but cry the government is not doing enough to create job. If you have a high school education and have done nothing to advance yourself what kind of job do you think you are going to get. If you go to college and get an art degree you are going to be in the same boat.

Don't have the elitist attitude that you deserve a job if you want to work and cant find work create your own company or get more skills to be attractive to employers. There are to many government programs that will help people with these skills but they are too lazy to jump on those. (and i don't want to hear about families and time restraints)

Man you are so out of touch with reality...

Are you well off or something? You sound like you dont any a clue what its like to be an avg young adult in today's society.

Having a degree/not having a degree means jack shiit!!! Most hedgefund managers, and banksters didnt land their jobs because of their degree's.

Why should people have to spend 200k to get a job making 30k a year? This is the reality. Most of the college students are in debt before they even graduate, many of them are paying their loans now before they even land their first job.

There is no pull yourself up by the boot straps anymore. Those days are over.

You get a degree for 150-200k and you work for a cooperation for pennies compared to what the avg ceo makes. Starting a biz is impossible, entrepreneurship is dead... How can the the small hardware store in the neighborhood compete with big chain stores? How can mom and pop shops create jobs and compete with walmarts, and targets selling cheap chinese junk.

Dude do you not see whats going on? Are you rich? Have you ever struggled? Either you are part of the baby boomer generation, or you are from money. I dont wanna hear it man.

Unless you're becoming a doctor or a lawyer, how the hell did you come up with $200,000 for college? [pic]

My family came up from nothing... and I came out just fine BECAUSE of college.

you're country sucks anyone here with a two year college degree can make 60k+ first year

!!ing !!hole usa and you guys just keep letting the same !! happen over and over again

You're making it a lot worse than it really is. Its not impossible to start a business & people shouldn't be attending college if they can't afford it.

You're right. If you're too poor to afford college, then sorry son. Just work at McDonalds. You're kids and theirs can do the same too. It's not the ridiculous cost of higher education that's putting MILLIONS of 20 year olds in mortgage type debt. It's because those poor people shouldn't be going to college if they can't afford it. NVM that we're the ONLY country that puts its future generations in ridiculous debt for a better education. The system isn't the problem [pic]

no you mean Republican congress refuses to do anything, has nothing to do with healthcare "being shoved down throats" !! is law. There is no "shoving" to be done.

Do you think poor people are the only ones that can't afford something? I already posted an article that showed that the college debt burden falls the heaviest upon upper middle class families. Affordability includes scholarships, grants, and other financial aid, anything that helps pay so a large student loan is not taken out. So yes, a poor person shouldn't attend college if they can't afford it. A middle class person shouldn't attend college if they can't afford it, anyone who can't afford it, should wait until they can or not go at all. Just because its college doesn't mean simple financial logic shouldn't apply.

And don't act like a good amount of McDonald's workers aren't college graduates.

You sound so ignorant.
The problem is the price of education.
Not that fact that people cant afford it and still try to better themselves.
What are you the CEO of JP Morgan lol.
Keep the poor poorer and the uneducated even more uneducated.

Just work at McDonald for the rest of your life [pic]
