I guess I didn't understand at all what you were actually trying to say.
So............ you, as a "young person", are ecstatic about working part time, low paying jobs? Just how is working part time for slave wages "sticking it to the man"?
I, as "1%er", am a little concerned for our youth if they are thrilled about part time, low paying jobs. It used to be in America that people sought good paying, full time jobs. I guess times have changed.
Carry on "sticking it to the man". I will "suffer" with my wealth while you revel in your poverty. My children can use you as slaves while they enjoy a nice income and lifestyle.
I agree. We all know people who are just barely hanging on yet we are supposed to cheer how great Obama's economy is. I don't get it. Is this a game we are playing or are we looking for actual results.
I do not hold Presidents or political parties responsible for employment or lack thereof.
Romney promised to create 12 million jobs over the next 4 years. He did not specify if those jobs would be full or part time or minimum or living wage.
Nonetheless, at the time, analysts projected that 12 million jobs would be created regardless of who won.
While unemployment averaged about 4.5 % during the majority of the boom-boom 1950's, before technology and outsourcing, 25% of people lived in poverty.

Just a check in middle age. Obama is president. Why is it that every time democrats pull out the "what if's" and Bush. This does not make sense.
Obama is president and now you can cheer the April jobs report, although the real question should be are Americans really doing better. Do we cheer a number because you believe it confirms your belief in Obama or do we look for actual results.
lol, if you think this is something wait until July when Obama supporters will be touting that the economy grew 3% but will not understand that growth is due to re-writing economic history.
The U.S. Economy Will ‘Grow’ 3 Percent By July As New Way Of Looking At GDP Goes Into Effect
We are essentially rewriting economic history,". The U.S. economy will be 3 percent larger by July, at least on paper. By this summer, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) will have completed a massive revision of current and historical data, adding billions of dollars worth of non-manufactured items.
But.....after 4+ years of Obama and his brilliant policies that were supposed to fix our economy, they're not nearly good enough.
Nobody can tell me that the recession (which ended 3 years ago) was so horrific that it's taken this long to get out of? We've been through lots of recessions, and it shouldn't have been this bad.
I hope it continues to get better. And I hope the Dems start to see that it's a result of conservatives in congress.
The recession was that horrific. You not wanting to acknowledge reality doesn't change it. We had a deep big hole of millions of lost jobs and a nose diving economy.
I remember reading economists saying in early 2009 that it would take many years to get back and that was those economists who favored the stimulus. This was widely known, that this recession was extremely destructive.
Deception, perhaps even self-deception, is in their nature.
There's a few honest conservatives around here, but most are just partisan hacks who live in alternative realities. It's pretty much pointless trying to talk with many.
