The Cowardly Liberals on USMB

[Ray From Cleveland]

One thing that we need to do is stop calling something that pays $10 per hour a "job" even if it is full time. For that wage if one shows up that's almost enough. But there are pricks out there that think the more of these there are the better.

The problem in this country is not so much a lack of jobs but a lack of careers

A career is something you can support a family on, something you can eventually retire on
Those are becomming harder and harder to find

Bull. The problem is you can't get people off of these welfare programs to actually go out and find work or a career. They are either too lazy or can't quit smoking pot in order to pass a drug test.

Our industry is going to need over 46,000 new workers alone, and some of those jobs will not only train you, but pay you while you learn. Still can't get Americans to take these jobs.

...Entitlements...

just for the sake of clarification, please define "Entitlements", seems most people have different definitions for different people..., OK ?

The problem often starts in schools.

There needs to be better, more widespread education that makes kids feel useful when they're kids. If they get to adults having been told they're failures simply because the one style of education that is promoted isn't to their taste, then with some kids, you've lost them already.

There needs to be better social programs, designed well, that have the aim of making sure that inner city ghettos disappear.

There needs to be a feeling of hope, whereas in the US, at the bottom of the pile, there is a feeling of despair and kids grow up with that and never really lose it.

1. Raise taxes on corporations and the rich
2. Tariff companies that import goods instead of making them here.
3. If a lot more people are working, that's a lot more people paying taxes.
4. Less war spending
5. New green economy will help
6. Less corporate welfare
7. Raise wages so everyone is paying more in taxes
8. More government jobs for the unemployed
9. I could go on and on.

eliminating all the money in the country doesn't solve your dumb ass problem. It was already explained in another thread.

So entitlements is the issue, why don't you educate yourself a little. Two thirds of money went to Entitlements in 2014. Let's address that can we, and stop with grab someones money? It won't help.

So get rid of social security and medicare? Or maybe the politicians just need to stop ripping off those entitlement programs. Strengthen them. We recently cut corporate tax rates. Undo that and put that money into the fund to pay back what the politicians took out of the lock box.

When did we cut corporate tax rates? They increased under DumBama.

GOP governors cut corporate taxes big time dummy

But on the federal level, DumBama raised them. Maybe some of those corporations broke even in those states that lowered corporate taxes. Do you know why states and cities lower taxes? To attract more businesses. Do you know what higher taxes do?

Your understanding of business is sophomoric. Please stop

it was that ******* LBJ who robbed the fund blind to pay for HIS Vietnam war, he could have ended it but for his interest was to keep it going for his benefit..., yaa knoe..., $$$$$$$$$!!!!

The largest part of that problem is single parent homes. Single parent homes are directly related to poverty, and yet they are growing all the time--particularly in the black neighborhoods.

Public schools are geared for those that are planning on going to college. For the rest that will or cannot, too bad.

Ask any high school student what they know about investments. Ask them what the PE ratio of a stock means. Ask them what they know about starting their own business. Ask them anything about real estate or compound interest. Ask them what they know about the commodities market.

Even high school graduates know nothing about these subjects. If you want to learn about investments, find a way to go to college.

So it's no wonder why these union public schools leave kids believing that in this greatest country on earth, you have to be born a certain color, have to be born into the right family, have to have a head start in life to make anything of yourself. And if you don't have these things, there is always crime to turn towards.

Lebron James had nothing to do with Viet Nam. You're thinking about Dennis rodman in Korea.

Well single parent homes exist for a reason. But no one seems to deal with these issues. They simply say it's up the individual to sort out.

However people don't understand relationships and have a distorted view of what to expect when they reach adulthood. Even "decent people". I knew a girl from Nebraska and we spoke about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's up and coming marriage. I said it didn't matter when they got married, but when they got divorced. She laid into me, telling me people got married and remained happy forever.

Who was right? Well, clearly I was right. Her view of marriage is dangerous. I don't know what became of her after that year (2000 I believe), but no doubt she'd believe that her marriage wasn't as it was supposed to be. Some stay together disappointed, maybe even tolerating, others get divorced.
If kids were forced to confront their future thoughts and organize them before they have to deal with their problems, then they're far more likely to make better decisions.

In Austria (and other countries in that region), they have different choices in education. You have the Gymnasium, an academic route for those who want academia and are smart. Then you have the HTL which is for more skills based subjects, from Information Technology to Building, subjects are taught alongside their speciality, and made relevant for the students, rather than forcing them to do stuff that they simply don't care about.

Education is a big key, but then you get people complaining when the President's wife calls for only one ketchup sachet for every meal in schools. I mean, you know you've lost hope in ever changing things to things that make sense and work.

The US has gone beyond hope, and will probably never recover.

There you go again--believing it's the job of the federal government to micromanage your life right down to your children.

Single parent homes do exist for a reason; because they have been promoted by liberals for decades now. Democrats realized long ago that if they can substitute a welfare check for a husband, it gives them more votes down the road. This is no accident or changing of the times.

As a child growing up in the 1960's, working mothers were very rare. Women stayed home and raised their children. Men went out to work and bring home the bacon. Some women did eventually get a part-time job, but that wasn't until all children were in school. Until that time, mom raised you.

It was very passionate too. I remember when my mother would hang laundry on the laundry line outside. She would have her cup of coffee and started a BS session with all the other neighbor mothers who were doing the same. They would talk by the fence which seemed like hours for me as a kid. But it was a real interactive society.

After work hours, the neighborhood smelled like food in the summer. All those mothers were making home cooked meals. We seldom ever ate fast food and no other families did either.

When the 70's came about, Women's lib hit and they promoted that women don't need husbands. Children don't need fathers. Women should not be enslaved to their male counterparts. They can do just fine by dropping their kids off at a daycare and going to work just like the man. Women no longer needed a breadwinner in the house.

So here we are today: single-parent homes, kids living on fast food, a day care center in many industrial areas now, and even vouchers for the poorer single women for their daycare centers.

It didn't just happen by a stroke of bad luck.

Somebody doesn't know how to spell " rungs " or it's just a typo... I know I make a lot of those.

Pansies ( sp ) or a pansy was a slang word for queer in times long past. Us old dudes might use it sometimes... gets by the filters that screen for bad words. Some forums won't let you even type " queer " or " *** " or " homo ". But the programmers are too young to know about phrases like " pansy ".

It is? Then who do we blame for all these jobs that have nobody applying for them, the employers?
