Globalism and feminism killed the golden goose of American industrial jobs. Democrats are primarily to blame but some RINOs went along with it.

They sold the idea of a transitional service economy followed by green jobs. What really happened was Walmart became among the biggest employers. The average Walmart worker to survive uses EBT cards. In other words, Walmart is subsidized by theUS Government!!!

This is insanity. This will never support US real estate.

Blame me.

I can take it.

Most people blame me, anyway.

I've been the breadwinner for my family since I was a kid.

My whole thing is .. "would you say that to your neighbor who works all day? your brother?"


The economy has always sucked since I've been eligible to participate (1991) and WAY before if you ask my dad (he died in a factory in 2012, so no one can ask him and it's ok).

People's expectations are insane.

I say people's ... but you all know who I'm talking about!
 Quoting: SugarSand


The 90s were mostly still booming. Some industry was dying, but tech was taking its place and being produced here in the US. The first jobs I ever had in the 90s I literally walked in somewhere, talked to the manager and started the next day. I started work as a temp office worker straight out of high school making $16/hr.

Even in the early 2000s I could quit a job and have another within a week.

I lost my job in '08 and couldn't find work for 6 months and was almost homeless.

I moved across country for a job in '15 that didn't work out(long story). I spent a year after that before finding another. That employer was extremely abusive and deceptive, ended up leaving after 9 months. I spent 6 months looking and never landed another interview.

I ended up starting my own business which was declining under pressure from large corps like Amazon however the last year of shutdowns has pretty much destroyed my business altogether. So, back to square one again.

I can't even get a burger flipping job. The manager hears my work history and says why the hell do I want to work there.
