They should just get the Mac Daddy Barack to give them an allowance, from his sta$h.

Agreed. Anecdotal evidence is that many people working in retail, or places such as fast food outlets, were not born in this country.
When I was a teenager I helped my dad on the farm, I had a small herd of sheep, a couple of steers, help with the haying, and stacking, milked cows and then I earned money helping the neighbors. Now days I guess they play video games or get into gangs creating trouble.
Print print print. The Counterfeiter-In-Chief will tax via inflation to feed his peeps and bankrupt a nation.
>The silence of the article on the major role of immigration has played in this decline in teens working is deafening.
Criminal, illegal “immigration”. That, and the hoards of islamist that has been allowed to come here and sponge off Uncle Sugar and build sharia law villages in America.
Destructive, criminal invaders is more accurate.
Raise the import tariffs and bring back American industry to boost the demand for labor.
Stop illegal immigration, reduce legal immigration and H1b's to reduce the supply of labor.

They become brownshirted foot soldiers for dangerous left-wing political movements.
Government policies have led to this, and are making it worse.
Every job I did as a teen is now done by adults or illegals.
Delivering newspapers, working in my friend’s -fathers parking lot, clean-up at a meat processing plant...
I’m convinced our Government and the Federal Reserve are destroying work, and killing the job market.
When I was a kid, I harvested radishes and green oninons by hand in Auburn Washington. The people there were young people like me and a few of their single moms. When I turned 16 I drove the goods on a flatbed truck to places like the Safeway distribution center.
Every single person was white. No blacks (none in that area at that time), no hispanics, but quite a few Asians, believe it or not.
Now, most of those farms are gone. Replaced by warehouses and business centers.
A side note: Every single one of my Asian friends there were Japanese and all of their fathers were named George. This was around 1970.
Obama wants to come to the rescue by raising the minimum wage.
As long as they can buy an Arizona Tea and a bag of Skittles with an EBT and some Cough Medicine through Obamacare, they will be good!
Raise the minimum wage higher and we’ll all find out.
My son started his first job just after the 4th of July this past summer. Working in the produce department at Wal-Mart.
He went through the interview process and a computer generated Q and A prior to a face-to-face interview. Starting pay $8.56 an hour. He is earning his own money
and saving it. His performance review after 6 months was good and customers have sought out his supervisor or manager
to compliment him on his helpfulness. All in all a good start.
The problem is the minimum wage.
Get rid of it.
Then, you will see jobs that are worth less than the current minimum wage start popping up all over, just waiting for high school kids to fill them. Like it used to be.
Like it SHOULD be.
Most don’t look for jobs. Or want them. They like getting weekly handouts from mom and dad. Or getting it through ill-means.
They will make good cannon fodder for Islam.
Conservatives love to reminisce about first-time jobs. Libs love to reminisce about their school years. Not significant, no, not significant.
