Trump versus Clinton?

the bigger flipper should not have to work 2-4 jobs to pay his rent.

Burger flippers should be students or young people in general that want a part time job.

An adult that can't get a better job than flipping burgers doesn't deserve much as they are obviously a dumbass.

I am a well off successful person and you think I don't understand things. That's funny.

Eh. Being successful at something doesn't mean you understand why you're successful. If you think it's all because you worked hard and are smart, you only understand the factors that reflect well on yourself.

No, no, Kusa's explained it -all-, he had a plan.  Ten Commandments style.

There's a thing called social intelligence. I guess you didn't start out in a ghetto, be it a black or white one. I also don't think, you didn't get any higher education because your parents couldn't afford to feed you or to send you to college. These people exist you know, so you may be well off and successful, but your still a social moron, since you look down on others without even considering their cirucmstances.

Not that I'm surprised, given your post record.

Here's a fun question, a total 180.......professionally, whose failed more impressively than they've ever managed to succeed?

[Sterben]

Teachers do deserve better pay as does every American citizen needs a living wage. I agree with Alex we need more socialism in this country, it's a major problem that capitalism runs everything. A bit of capitalism does do good things, not everything has a price tag or a value. Were sitting at 1.3 trillion in student loan debt, and what do we have to show for it? A 18 year old who went to school for _______(Fill in your own blank) is now 25. This person can not find a job in the field they studied and winds up working for Target. There is something wrong there, it may be the fault of the student or it maybe a mix of the student and companies not willing to hire a person without experience. How is that fair, there is a lot of good talent wasted out there.

How would it be the fault of capitalism that a company isn't willing to hire an experienced person and how would you solve that problem with a different system in the same situation of a company not hiring a person who they don't want to hire because of a lack of experience?

       If there was an abundant number of experienced applicants then I can understand that company's would not want to risk hiring a recently collage graduate. In a lot of these fields though there is not a abundant pool of choices. How is a person suppose to get the experience needed if no one will hire them? We had a system in place before company's would hire at a entry level wage, they would get experience and be able to progress further in a career. That's how it's the fault of capitalism. One I know for sure about, networking. You pass all your classes and no one wants to hire you cause you have no field experience. Again I ask you how do you get it when no one will hire you?

1) Isn't there still a system in place now where companies can hire people at an entry level wage and enable them to get experience to be able to progress further if companies choose that option?                                                                                                                                
2) I don't see how that system goes against any of the values of capitalism. Capitalism in a free market is made up of voluntary exchange, wage labour, private ownership of the means of production, so on and so on, but there's nothing there that contradicts anything to do with entry level wages, people gaining experience and progressing further in a business.

And, do your really think, this applies to todays capitalism?

I always make a distinction between a free market and capitalism. The same way as I make a distinction between social democracy and socialism - or communism in it's worst case. Note the ism in all these words. In most cases it points to a system running unchecked. And that's never a good thing, since any given system isn't in the business of correcting itself.
