For those with no skills, in this market, that is pretty much the truth. Advice I give to any young person, learn a skill, get an education, and continue that education for as long as you are alive. Yesterdays skills are often not revelant in todays employment market.For some reason, they think that a person is chained to an employer. If the employer won't pay them enough, there's nothing they can do. The employer can laugh and giggle and dance around them, because they just can't go anywhere else. That's it, they're stuck there.Oh, I have no hatred for the petty capitalist, although labor exploitation is never a good thing..
Amazing how many on the left have absolutely no idea how much work, stress, time and sacrifice it takes just to be able to hire your FIRST employee, and keep paying them.
Just start a business, snap your fingers, and BING! You're a millionaire with 200 employees.
Incredible.

No one is forced to work. We know this because there's a guy on the side walk as I leave for work, who hasn't done anything at all for the entire day, and people give him money to stand on the corner.
Exploitation is not inherently bad. In fact, it's mutually beneficial. My employer is making money off me. I'm making money off him. We're both better off because of the arrangement. If I were not better off, I wouldn't work there.
