Every year about 4 million American youngsters move on from high school. On average just over 80% of them graduate and the others, around 760,000 each and every year, just move on. Unfortunately the economic futures of those who don’t obtain a high school diploma are rather bleak. They are made bleaker in that they will in all likelihood be competing for jobs against millions of illegal immigrants who are willing to work for far below market wages.
Of those who do graduate high school, around 2/3rds will attend college. Thus just over 1 million high school graduates won’t attempt to attend college. Of those who go to college, 40% won’t graduate in a 6 year time span, adding another 864,000 to the list of folks who either never attended or graduated from college.
So in total, every year we have about 2.6 million American non-college graduates who must find employment of some kind. What economic futures are we leaving to these unfortunate individuals?

Unfortunately they are so far out brainwashed by the universities that they can’t distinguished a horse from a car.
True, we mowed yards $2, raked leaves, tossed newspapers, worked at a Taco shop as soon as I turned 16 - looking back did not make any money but dang it was fun to work a paying job with a check, I make more in one month than I did from 8-18 but it is learning to work.. the MOST important job skill there is.
Illegal Immigration imposes SLAVE wages on LEGAL immigrants and minorities.
Our corrupt Education system, by focusing on indoctrination rather than useful education, is responsible for the under-prepared entry level job force.
Obama: Mission accomplished.
It only took about a 100 years to make America (that used to lead the world in everything) to go full ‘tard.
Two whole generations of American kids abandoned for cheap foreign labor.
Damned if they do, damned if they don’t, so why even try?
I have no pity for people who chose personal financial gain over the future of their country.
But then again, they aborted over 50 million children in their quest for wealth, and had to import 50 million illegals to make up for that loss.
It’s really going to suck for them when all of their retirement funds are confiscated to pay for all of those illegals, because I sure as hell won’t pay for them.
The illegals are not only working for slave wages, they ignore safety and sanitation guidelines as well. If you doubt that, then talk with someone who works with them, or simply watch the late night Mexican standup comedians. There’s a lot to be learned.
Illegals hurt young Americans, recent legal immigrants and poor black inner city communities.
But democrats don’t give a damn - it’s just more dependent people who will vote democrat... Democrats raid our treasure for their own benefit... not the benefit of the country.
I picked fruit in the late 60’s so I don’t need to guess.

Young people are hurt by illegal immigration, but trust me it hurts us older people paying all their bills much more. Young people are less of a tax base than middle-aged and older Americans, and the simple truth is that rather than funding the retirements of older Americans, today’s immigrants are making retirement impossible for many.
