They are learning the hard way that socialism does not work.
Socialism always works just fine until it runs out of other people’s money.
Are you sure they’re really learning anything?
I think they’re just gripeing.
.
Hence the reason why we need a major streamlining of business regulations and especially a massive overhaul of income taxation laws to really stimulate the economy. Too many (sometimes contradictory) business laws and a tax system that favors debt spending over savings is literally killing the US economy.
“They are learning the hard way that socialism does not work.”
Indeed. After 5-6+ years of wasting money getting a degree in liberal arts, known as an Instant Unemployment Degree, they are now learning that no one owes them a living.
Most of them bring zero to the table to get a job.
The real world doesn’t work that way.
They and their predecessors for over 6 decades have failed to realize that many of the so called degrees in college offer zero help to getting a job, keeping that job and getting raises for good work.

13 College Majors Where The Pay Goes Nowhere

When deciding on a college major, students are encouraged to think about a few things: what they love to do; what they want to do; what jobs they imagine themselves in; and what the earning and growth potential is like for those careers.
For instance, they'd probably want to know ahead of time that Human Services majors only see their annual pay increase by about $7,500, or 22%, over the first 10 years of their careers, compared to the average American worker, whose salary grows by about $25,000, or 60%, in that time.
That's according to Pay-scale, the creator of the world's largest compensation database with more than 40 million salary profiles. It recently looked at the difference between starting (less than five years of experience) and mid-career (10 or more years of experience) pay by college major, and determined the 13 majors with the smallest salary growth.
“We're not trying to discourage students from pursuing these majors — we're simply offering information so that students can make informed choices and get the most out of their degree, whatever major they choose,” says Kayla Hill, a research analyst at Pay-scale.
Among the majors, Child Development has the lowest starting salary ($32,200) and mid-career pay ($36,400) — and shows the least amount of growth in the first 10 years ($4,200, or 13%).
“Human support service majors tend to be paid less across the board,” Hill explains. “Child Development workers in particular may see less growth over time because it is a field that tends to be undervalued by society. Additionally, childcare workers may not have the same opportunities for advancement as more technical jobs, where learning new skills can lead to a pay bump or promotion.”
Human Services majors had the second lowest salary growth between starting and mid-career,

The majority of them voted for it over at least two elections and put a fascist in the White House.
It would be interesting to see how they voted in this last election. After being dumbed down in our schools, I’d be surprised if they’ve learned anything about cause and effect.
