Why is it so hard to find a living wage job or source of legitimate income in USA?

Question

This Republic of Fascist Capitalism is really bothering me! Do NOT hand me a list of excuses i have heard them all, plus have worked for money over 40 years in USA the country i was born in. You can't turn to anywhere for help & get effective results!

Answer 1

i can relate.you know all the reasons and its all a crock all of our policies which are throwing our jobs away and the illegals working here bringing our wages and standards of living down.our foreign policy allowing other countries to ship inferior products because they are cheaper.does anyone think the pet food disaster would have happened if we expected china to have the same standards as we demand from our own manufacturers? people wake up cause next time if there are no changes and protections enforced it will be people not our pets!its all about the money everywhere is so much corruption it sickens you. good luck.

Answer 2

I am a American from a low-income, poverty stricken family. We had no car, no TV, no phone, no Christmas, etc... We were poor!

I learned that to break the cycle of poverty I could (1) get a college degree (preferably advanced degree), or (2) I could join the military, or (3) I could start my own business.

If I placed myself in the job market then I would have to work harder than everyone else and my success would not be guaranteed. But to do well in the job market I had to (1) make my boss look good, and (2) make money for him.

I am now a successful millionaire. If you are having a hard time making a living in the USA it is because you have failed in one of the above.

Answer 3

I personally think this administration is again trying to turn our 3 class society into a 2 class society. I think that in addition to the job situation, the Patriot Act seems to be making it impossible to deposit large sums into accounts that don't already have a long history of large sums (once you start to rise above your existing bracket all the security alarms go off and your accounts are on hold and money locked up) - so even the back door ways to profits (like eBay, etc.) seem to be closed to all under a certain income bracket these days. I did not experience this problem during the Clinton Administration is all I can say.

Peace!

Answer 4

Did you finish High school? Or drop out in third grade. Look in the newspaper, many many jobs listed that pay a living wage. But hey you may just have to show up on time and be productive.

Answer 5

Your concept of what this country is about says it all.
It is very hard if you hate capitalism. You want a free ride. You want to steal from those who have money, who've earned money, and give to YOU.
Sorry, we are not a socialist state, nor will we be.
You can't get ahead with slipshod efforts and keeping to the status quo. You have to make EXTRA effort, have something special to sell or supply.

You don't. You have nothing and don't want to produce anything worth the money you think you are owed.

When you believe you are owed something you aren't, that's called "delusional". Are you?

Answer 7

It's part of the globalist agenda. They want to drive down the standard of living so that we'll all be proletariats.

Answer 8

It is because the economy as a whole took a nosedive during the current administration in Washington DC!

Answer 9

maybe because what you expect to be a "living wage" is higher than it ought to be...you should live a more simple life...
