Are you trying to be antagonistic?
Re the summer jobs --- Help Wanted signs everywhere indicate to me that employers are looking for workers. If every college student is already working then these employers are looking for workers who do not exist in the USA, and they have to hire foreigners or not have clean motel rooms, etc.
If Freepers tell me that their college age children cannot find a summer job then I wonder why they are not taking the traditional resort jobs that kids always used to take.
I don't know where you live, but has it occurred to you that not every place has the same job opportunities? And I don't know why a kid might not take a traditional resort job (if indeed they are not) however, I suspect most try to take jobs near home so they can live there and actually save money instead of spending it all on living expenses.
I went to HS in a resort town, and the living there is generally more expensive.
I'm sorry you believe I'm being antagonistic, but you are making statements and backing them up only with your belief or your personal local experience. I'm tired of hearing that our kids are all too lazy to work.
