Headline is absolutely true. Americans DO fear that.
That’s why they end up voting for either Trump or Bernie, depending on their base political philosophy.
To: pabianice
The GOP says Americans should quit whining. They should be happy to compete with an endless conga-line of foreign imports, HB1s, reckless chain immigration, and tens of millions of illegals.

The problem is that it’s the Democrat’s policies that are creating these problems.
There’s a reason that 80% of Wall Street campaign contributions go to Democrats.

Hundreds of thousands jobs! Many friends at Disney World locally. 20 year veterans. American workers can’t compete with low wage imports!

However, dead end crap jobs with guaranteed HIGH wages would be okay... ;-)

We need more socialism so rich politicians can rail against rich people exploiting the masses!

The problem is that its the Democrats policies that are creating these problems.
And the Republicans are stupid enough to step to the front and take credit for them.

A "child prodigy" lands a "coveted" job and ends up bouncing around/job hopping in middle management in her late 20's/early 30's? and now works for $11 a hour?
If I had time to look, there is WAY more to this.
To: Buckeye McFrog; dragnet2
I agree with what you guys said in 2 and 3.

I read the article.
She lives in Pennsylvania and supports Saunders.
She’s an idiot. Deserves what she gets.

The rentier class has of late become extraordinarily adept at sucking the blood of the former middle class. The top 10% are doing better than ever and probably have trouble understanding what the complaint is. But too many state and local government limitations on entrepreneurship and job creation are wiping out small business formation - with the tacit approval of both political parties, who are primarily interested in keeping their big contributors financially healthy and free from upstart competitors.

You need to add in the GOP’s complicity that dragnet2 nailed in post 3.

The jobs are out there you just may have to expand your choices.
Both my daughters got four year degrees but neither are working in “their field”. They each had a couple of crap jobs but now both have office jobs paying $14 and hour to start with full benefits.
Their first pay raises will be this summer to $15 an hour.
Took 3 years of hunting and looking.
Not bad for NC.

She’s a definite fool if she thinks that Sanders will fix it. I don’t think anybody can put us back to where we were; unfortunately because those were good days.
But I am certain that I don’t want Bernie nor Hillary at the helm.

they need to fear “dead-end jobs” less and less
now with $15+ “minimum wages” starting up, there are more and more layoffs (AND FAR LESS JOBS EVEN BEING CREATED OR OFFERED!)
the rest of us will support more and more of them... while they’re sitting on their butts at home ... unemployed

Which will put them on-par with a newly hired burger flipper the way things are trending.
So which has a better payoff? Years of hard work or political activism?

Lets see, D.C. lawyers in government concoct policies which flood the country with HB1s, endless reckless chain immigration, millions of illegals, lawless borders, all while creating trade laws where hundreds of thousands of American jobs and entire industries move to foreign countries...
And then they report Americans fear dead end jobs or no jobs?
Who are these people in D.C.? And when to they begin strafing us?

If Bernie does not win somebody just like him will within two election cycles. Have never been more certain of anything in my life. This country now has a robust Socialism constituency with staying power.
