And my favorite restaurants are all hiring. I love seeing all these young Democrats $250,000+ in school debt bring a basket of rolls to my table. But I always have to ask for more butter.
If no one has good jobs how come buyers are pushing up home prices, travel and vacation spending is up, car sales are robust, construction projects are multiplying?
Seriously? Hispanics are becoming major forces in home ownership and car sales. All the dumb-ass white kids are sitting at home in debt after Obama took over student loans and then increased their lending by 44% so the colleges went nuts and raised their tuitions.
It's almost like it was on purpose to inflict as much damage as possible on the white middle class.
And you Democrats want more of this nonsense from Hillary.

In fact, for the first time in 2012, Hispanics’ college enrollment rate among 18- to 24 year-old high school graduates surpassed that of whites, by 49% to 47%.
In 2012, 49% of Hispanic high school graduates enrolled at a postsecondary, public institution. This percentage surpassed that of white students for the first time, and Hispanic enrollment in colleges and universities, which has increased 240% since 1996, is expected to continue to grow.
No shortage of demand for skilled labor. Help wanted signs in front of all kinds of blue collar businesses. Where are the qualified workers? Working at Denny's? I doubt it.
This country needs to get it's priorities straight. We need to encourage people to invest in becoming skilled again.
Same around here. Skilled positions going begging for lack of a trained workforce. There are an estimated 3 million positions unfilled because employers can't find qualified people. We need also to stop paying disability to people whose skills have become outdated and start training them instead for the jobs in demand. And we need to move the people to where the jobs are and where possible jobs to where the newly skilled are.
That's actually a lie started by Newt Gingrich back in 2012. It actually doubled under Bush II but we can't admit it.
My bad should have said at all time high levels And no it wasn't a lie
As of January 2016, 94 million Americans weren’t participating in the labor force. “But the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) has been hovering around 46 million participants since 2011. The current figure, as of February 2016, stands at 45.8 million Americans receiving food stamps,” notes Kangadis.
According to Bloomberg Business, the last time the unemployment rate was under five percent, which was in 2008, 28 million Americans were on food stamps. That means roughly 19 million more people are using food stamps since 2008.
