Yeah.. something about sitting in a cubicle staring at a grey wall with cheesy motivational posters and 8 bosses telling you the same thing for 8.5 hours a day, 5 days a week in an environment that stifles individualism, creativeness and openness .... just doesn't appeal to people anymore?
OMG THOSE LAZY KIDS!
God forbid people want to enjoy life.
The latest census data shows nearly one in two Americans, or 150 million people, have fallen into poverty — or could be classified as low income.

Here's an idea
Head on over to Craigslist, look under the Gigs or Jobs sections at what's in demand in your area, make notes of the commonalities and trends, then go buy a book and LEARN.
pretty tough - huh
I guess these college kids are just waiting around for mommy & daddy to buy them a job too

Having a daughter with two degrees and now working on her third because the last job she had could not even pay for her student loans I have to agree with you 100%.
That is why I didn't even bother answering our friend bashing college students is not even worth it.

Oh, but hasn't everyone heard? The unemployment rate is falling.
It's fallen low enough in Georgia that starting sometime this month they are going to severely cut everyone's benefits that is on them.
Of course no one mentions that the crisis started here earlier than elsewhere, because housing was SO HOT here, it melted down first, like in October of 2007-8 as I recall. Wow, we are 4-5 years into this thing, and guess what?
That means a lot of people are NOT being counted.
Youth, minorities, people that's professions are in the housing industry- those people aren't any lazier than anyone else...they just aren't in demand.
