“A large percentage of Americans don’t want to work. Many of them figure there is still enough wealth to be redistributed to them.”
I don’t believe that; for many Americans work is the only thing putting distance between them and unassimilated minority malcontents. In my area, the jobs “Americans won’t do” aren’t even offered to Americans.
“Management” jobs at Staples Office Supply start at $10/hr and go to $16/hr. Of course the real mangers make more.
