You run from reality real fast.
There are probably 45 million young work age people and you suggest they all get two jobs?
Ya think there are 90 million jobs out there for these young folks? Come on.
Ya think young people in their 20s or 30s working at McDonald's can make enough to live on their own and some rented apartment or home and afford all that?
Come on.
I agree there may not be enough jobs out there for those just starting out- I believe all the illegals in this country have a lot to do with the job market too.
I can tell you that during the wonderful Carter years I was a young adult getting started- I had a two year degree in Criminal Justice which I chose because I wanted to be in law enforcement and had been told it was really opening up for women and people with some college. The only job I was offered in law enforcement was meter maid- which in hindsight I should have taken because LEO did really open up for women after that and those that were already in jobs like that did well. What I did was get an entry level office job during the day and a job in a bar at night and a roomate so I could make it on my own. I did not go back to my parents, funny I didn’t think of that as an option and I know they would have let me move in. It just didn’t occur to me, I wanted to be on my own- I felt they had done their part.
