Yup, the biggest destroyer of jobs says that gangstaz need jobs. If he really does sit down with
gang leaders, it is for more insidious reasons.

Can't they just move to Mexico to take the jobs Mexicans won't do?
To: Olog-hai
I can think of good jobs for them. When any of them are convicted of capital murder, the leader of a competing gang will act as his hangman, performing the actual, legal execution.

Obviously, more money needs to be poured into Chicago to keep gangs from making “easy” money through crime. Thug life has more of an appeal than bejng on a time clock.

This from the party that exports jobs via free trade agreements and attempts to import every low-skill foreigner on the planet that takes jobs from the yutes they purport to care about, plus utilizes the EPA to regulate companies out of business.
All of which adds up to fewer and fewer jobs.

If the Stock Yards were still there, they could get jobs slamming a sledge hammer on a cow's head, or perhaps running a pistol range, although most of them can't hit a barn from the inside.
I can't think of much else they'd could do.

Maybe they need fathers. And caring mothers. And faith. And merit based public school teachers. Perhaps school vouchers. And an appreciation for the rule of law. Perhaps a working understanding of free market capitalism. The Constitution. Our nations history and heritage.
Then they could earn a job that matched their skills.

They need jobs but don’t want to work.
Also, most of them cannot pass a drug test.

Lack of jobs is the reason for gangs?
Wait.. Isn’t the MSM telling us that the Obama economy is soaring and unemployment is down and we are all going to get ponies for Christmas?

Good point. If they don’t have a job, it’s their fault.

Send them to to some 3rd world hellhole for 2 weeks. How about a refugee camp on the edge of where ISIS is killing people?
Then when they are back here; ask them if they still think they have a bad situation here.
Actually that would be good for many Americans.
