You don’t have to have owned a business to understand the economics and the problems the government puts on them.

Actually, you do. Now I'm sure that a lot of folks who never have run or owned one would agree with you, but I'm also quite sure that 100% of those who HAVE run or owned a business...would totally disagree with you. (in context, a business large enough to have hired and fired employees over a period of time).

THINK ABOUT THIS: those of us who HAVE run or owned a biz - one lived in the ignorance of not having done it - and we ALL know that there is absolutely no way to understand this til you've done it. Until you have run one, you cannot possibly compare the understanding of owning one versus the ignorance of not owning one. Logic. By definition, intrinsically and inherently so.

My son came back from his second deployment in the Middle East and started looking for work. During the last year, all he has been able to find is being a security guard - and he’s limited to 30 hrs/week to prevent benefits from kicking in.

I’d argue most guys who have two combat tours have a reasonable work ethic. He has a wife and kid to take care of, so he’s motivated. But he’s still working part-time as a security guard because it is all he’s been able to find. And I suspect that the longer he goes like this, the harder it will be for him to find full time work.
