The source of information that says the AREN'T working!

A minimum wage job is far better than no job at all - for a LOT of reasons.

Look at ANY newspaper in ANY city, and there will be PAGES FILLED WITH "HELP WANTED" CLASSIFIEDS. Employers are desparate for good workers.

Why aren't these un-employed people getting jobs? The jobs ARE available!


I think we know the answer to the question, but we just don't want to admit it.
