“If some of these folks had worked this hard during the last administration,maybe we wouldn’t have had the mess we did.”

The type of people who answer these ads are not the type of people who will work forty hours a week assembling widgets. They get enough money to get high and they stop working. I have tried to employ a few. I pay them and they disappear until they run out of money again.

A German government study after the recent G-20 riots revealed that 85% of the rioters were male and in their twenties and 95% of them still lived with their parents. These are the people we are seeing on the streets. If they have a smart phone and are well fed, it’s not through their own efforts.

Exactly. They have been educated for jobs that don't exist. Some of them may have real credentials for serious work, but in fields for which the colleges massively overproduce graduates. Others were miseducated in various modernist garbage studies programs. All of them have been taught that personal fulfillment is an entitlement, and that society is at fault if a fun job that they want to do is not delivered to them, gift wrapped and with full benefits and generous sabbaticals included. None of them have any concept of rolling up their sleeves and sticking it out in gruntwork until they can find something better, or create their own gig.

There are several taproots to modern leftism. Among the educated elements, status resentment is huge. These are college grads, and they're deadended as baristas at Starbucks.
