Comments by "TeeKay" (@teekay_1) on "The REAL Reason Why People Don't Want To Work Anymore" video.
they don't want to be exploited and underpaid So the thing is, that the workplace has always been that way. In fact it was far worse in the past. The reason people stuck around is because unless you had a college degree, you didn't really have many choices. Most guys worked in factories making things. To pay my way through college I worked in a steel factory. As far as college degrees, in the past, most people understood that you went to college to get a degree in engineering, business/accounting, or doctor/lawyer (and later Computer Science). And the reason was no other degree was worth it. Today, somebody convinced the kids that a degree any degree was better than no degree, which is false. And certainly not taking out a loan Corporations have always been "greedy", corporations have always looked for ways to eliminate labor (because it's the biggest cost in running a company). None of this is new. Finally interest rates. In the late 1970's we had huge inflation because of Jimmy Carter and interest rates were at 17-19%.

@jamesof7seven Our government from both sides of the aisle don't focus on helping it's own citizens in a way that's sustainable. If our federal and state government was focused on making the country work for average people so they can afford a house, a car, and have a couple of kids, we wouldn't argue so much about politics. We are not well served by the people who are supposed to represent us.

@jamesof7seven Well, that's all fine to say, but short of starting a business yourself and running it the way you want it, you're kind of stuck.

@July41776DedicatedtoTheProposi Yes yes, it's everyone else's fault why you're struggling.

@324cmac When the government pumps money into the economy and causes inflation, that's what's causing most of everyone's stress.

@July41776DedicatedtoTheProposi The truth is a bitter pill for people who believe they're special and they're actually not.
