liberal arts means you have better chance of working at startbucks thats it.
I have never had a job that paid me less than 12 an hr. even at age 16.
Is this a pathetic joke? I hope so!
Gahhh! I don't know which is worse- the irony of the post, as pointed out or that I didn't pick up on the grammatical mistakes until you pointed them out... I usually pick those kinds of things up.

If you allow your country to compete with countries of people that are essentially serfs and wage slaves (China) you too will
end up the same.
I pretty much agree with these statements.
Sure there are good paying jobs out there- no doubt Pop_Rivet will be along to inform us that if we had only lived a life of hard work, clean eating and went to college to study hard, we too would never make less than a lowly $20.00/hr. There is truth to that statement, but no too long ago it wasn't too hard for high school graduates to work a skilled/non skilled labor position and with some smart spending, live a good life. Those jobs are getting fewer and farther in between.
