And?
It's not like teens are very often getting career level jobs. They're working the sorts of jobs you can learn to do in an afternoon and that don't require a high school degree.
You know ... the jobs literally anyone can do which is why they aren't worth much in the way of wage.

I'd hope not the rest of your life but where I live it's really tough to rent and is raising every year. I struggled for a while til I got a better job.
I just think someone trying to make a living shouldn't struggle so badly in US. The key word is "trying"

You should be able to work full time in the usa and at least afford a one bedroom or at least an efficiency apartment.
I believe in capitalism but that doesn't mean we can't do better.
You want the government to fix the problems that the government made?

Let's see. For starters.
1) Woodworking. I can do it. Sort of. If I have to, but it isn't pretty. His was.
2) Stoneworking. No idea how to do it.
3) Raising and milking cattle.
4) Growing and processing coffee.
I could still learn to do it, I suppose. If I ever retire. But it was part of his life, not hobbies.

Are you seriously suggesting that government can't do anything to improve things???
