51% America Makes Less Than $30K

Why?
Be precise

I just heard it reported on CNN... No one is hiring. Read it in my local paper two days ago. It's bad out there for folks that are unemployed or underemployed.

Do you know why?
Do you know when this REALLY started?

I could not function paying my employees that crazy high wage, they would be making more than me.

Are you nuts??

If you are an employer and make less than $23.50/hr, you really need to re-think what you are doing and hire someone that knows what they are doing.

I own three businesses two are seasonal, no one would expect that high of wage here in South Dakota for that type of work.

Are you nuts?!?!?

Because the NRA is a marketing concern for gun manufacturers. And the rubes buy everything they say

I never had a gun in my house until last year. When the Government is making threats of gun control sales go up. The dealer I purchased my gun from just bought a new house. His business is up 70%.....

Congrats! You've hit rube status.

We have lots of old folks, which makes up most of that number

The old folks I know had to go back to work at Walmart and McDonald's. If you are arguing that America is better off today I would certainly have to disagree. Get out once and a while.

I deal in numbers, and that's pretty much it. I'm rational and not, like you, subjective...

These nut jobs think that you are a communist who wants the state to own and run everything if you do not believe in completely unregulated market capitalism. These people are nuts. You can't reason with them

You are the unreasonable one...Capitalism fed your ass and purchased you video games and I phone and your daddy's pick up ect ect ect and built the greatest nation and the best place to live on the planet. Your kids and grandchildren will not be so fortunate.

I never said I had anything against capitalism, just uncontrolled capitalism. The middle class would never have grown as big as it did without unions. Get a clue already.

Nothing at all to do with baby boomers retiring.

Thank you president Reagan for fucking destroying our middle class and making it harder to move upwards.


All republicans care about is that 1%!

All Democrats care about is blaming other people for their F-ups. Would you like government to buy you a new shovel to dig up those bodies that you think are responsible instead of your precious Obama?

There are all kinds of jobs out there, it's just that you can't get Americans to work them.

Unions grew because a capitalist decided to make something someone wanted.
Where would the unions be without manufacturing. Union jobs built the middle class not unions alone.

We have the lowest number of working adults since 1975...read it and weep...

We have lots of old folks, which makes up most of that number.

Not really because those old folks are still working. It's the younger people--particularly in college that don't want to work. They were brought up with the entitlement mentality.

There's no High Tech, Financial or Analysis careers?

Well maybe start a thread and post all of those jobs. It may help someone.

Unions grew because a capitalist decided to make something someone wanted.
Where would the unions be without manufacturing. Union jobs built the middle class not unions alone.

Unions now comprise about 11% of those employed.
The Union jobs are now sent overseas.
