Definite: Which one that has never fought for the rights of there own on the job and around there residents, the young people has no true understanding on what the world is leading to there is NAFTA CAFTA and SAFTA.
There is one way to fine out write your congressman you'll
have to fine out that way, UNION workers gets the information before the public, because who made it safer on the job site
the UNION, who made the 40 hour week the UNION and who
rised that minu. wage for the individuals out there the UNION
There is a good thing being in the UNION, you have piece of mind where the employer doesn't harasse/ belittle you or control you,you go home with all your digits hands,feet fingers and the most inportant one life without being disable,you have no 401k (401k is not a good thing remember enron/worldcom
look at all those people lost there 401k) we have pensions and a peace of mind that retirement will be there and we have
different pay rates/scales across the usa.

These are high school kids raised by a generation of people born in the late 50s, 60s, and early 70s.
Most kids today have parents who partied all thru the 70s and 80 and 90s. What do you expect?
Look at how much America and the world have just deteriorated in our lifetimes. I was born in the late 50s.
All thru the 60s till today, I have seen technology change, the economy go up and down, witnessed record breaking inflation, the decline of social interaction other than computer boards like this, watched as the government pretty much has allowed huge corporations steal peoples savings, pentions and homes and leaving a deficit that will end most social security programs in this country within the next 15 years.
What do these kids have to look forward to?
If you are under 60 right now, you will never be able to retire.
EVER.
We get to work till the day we die.
Also, UNIONS go on strike and you are out of work for an indefinite length of time. If you don't have a good savings account or another income, depending on the length of the strike, you may end up on a line at the food-bank too.
No matter how you see it, it is not a rosey picture for our futures. It scares the crap out of me.

Everyone knows the world didn't start until they were born! This is just being a kid.. I don't think the whole world is so bad. If you live within your means you can still retire. I am retired from one job and work part time and I am only in my mid 50's.
As far as the last part on the Union rant. They were needed in their heyday. I just think that day is pretty much gone. Everyone is responsible for their own life financially as well. People complain about what CEO's get paid. Check to see what your Union BA is getting counting all the perks. I was forced to be in 3 different Unions and all they ever did for me was take my dues and I actually got reduced raises and bennies. If it works for you fine. Just didn't work for me.

People born in the early 90's are kinda young. 1990-2007 is only 17 years. How much are high school students suppose to know about the world?

It's called youth. You yourself at one time had no idea of Social Issues. I'm rather lost with the last of your statement so shall end here.
