(Hilariously, this one is from an Obama-hating website which is trying to pin the immigrants mowing lawns, washing dishes, and performing slave labor of all kinds on Obama, who is the only president in something like twenty years to put a dent in that crap. Wow. Are these people insane? When Clinton tried, he was impeached for a blow-job.)
"Fewer than three in 10 American teenagers now hold jobs such as running cash registers, mowing lawns or busing restaurant tables from June to August. The decline has been particularly sharp since 2000, with employment for 16-to-19-year olds falling to the lowest level since World War II.
And the statistics for minority, low-income teens are even grimmer. Blacks, Hispanics and teens in lower-income families were least likely to be employed in summer jobs.
Hispanics in families making less than $40,000 faced difficulties (19 percent employed), while middle-class black teens with family income of $75,000-$100,000 did moderately better, at 28 percent employed. For African-American teens whose family income was less than $40,000 a year, 14 percent are employed, compared to 44 percent of white teens with family income of $100,000-$150,000.
Teen employment may never return to pre-recession levels, suggests a projection by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics."
(Do these people -"Conservatives?" Is that what they are?- think Americans are so stupid that we are not going to remember who put us into a recession in the first place?
It is possible.
I happen to have a close friend who was ranting about the state of things. His main problem in life is that he's not getting laid as much as he'd like, as far as I can tell. He's spew sounded a bit like Archie Bunker on crack, although this guy hasn't done crack since the nineties. The end gist of it was that eventually we will have a Spanish president and a woman president as well, and the implication was that that would be the be-all end-all of our decline. I'm thinking, "Who ARE you? ...and maybe we just shouldn't hang out any more."
Here's a little more insight into the mind of a "conservative." I know two, personally, for many years.
One is a woman, and one is a man. Both are determined to support a regime which in no way supports them. One works at Walmart, the other is a janitor in an assisted-living facility, both have been demoted in their companies, the man down from a dishwasher because he offended the ladies, somehow. Both feel single mothers with young children in school should also work outside the home, even if they are widowed (essentially giving these women no time "off" from work, ever.)
One lives in Tennessee, the other lives in Georgia, but neither was born in the southern USA. One stayed back twice in grammar school, the other dropped out of High School and eventually got a GED. Both are divorced, not from each other. Neither have children. The one who remarried has no sex whatsoever in her life for approximately a decade. The non-married guy screws whatever he can while blaming the "whore" he loved in high school, decades ago, for all of his currant misogynistic tendencies. The conservative woman was dumped by her first love after he became enamored of another woman, after he first dragged my friend through hell on her knees. He pawned all of her jewelry and convinced her to abort his child because he couldn't afford a kid plus his drug habit.
Could it be that simple? What causes a "Hateful Conservative" is getting effed over sometime between high school and twenty-five never really getting your groove back?
The first-love-fuckover happens to almost everyone...but these two never really got back up on the horse, even after they married, and divorced or separated from, other people. They never got the "upper hand."
My chick friend says she is not a racist (all the time,) but complains incessantly about the “Puerto Ricans at work." Rather than just say "this bitch I work for," it’s “The Puerto Ricans stick together, and purposely don’t speak English in front of me.”
My guy friend lived in Texas for a while, but he hated it, so you can't blame that. He’s thought of women as lying, cheating sluts since he was fourteen and first had sex with one. Being an Altar Boy may have something to do with being unable to love or trust any woman he sticks his penis inside. If other men might possibly be harboring impure thoughts regarding the woman, he will still accuse the woman of being a whore. He has renounced “God” except when offered free food and charity by family and co-workers, so the renunciation is secret, mostly.
Maybe it is the fluoride.)
It's Obama's Fault (?) Fewer Than 3 in 10 Teens Now Hold Summer Jobs. Bushes a-holes have been in charge for decades. Obama was supposed to undo all of that damage in four years? When everyone who is supposed to be working with him basically cockblocks him from doing anything?
