Somebody has to work those jobs, there is competition for jobs that pay more, and it's a employers market (more people looking for them already then jobs available). In other words, the jobs are filled or being filled, and there is 42% of americans that can't get them, and must work jobs that pay near minimum wage. That is how it works in our country. If 20% of the remaining Americans suddenly got college degrees, no new jobs would just appear for them, it would just make more competition for the jobs already available, and more people over qualified working minimum wage jobs. Considering so many already have student loans WHILE working a miimum wage (or sub 15$ an hour) job, including 3 people I actually know lol.....and my aunt for awhile for that matter. If half of your jobs pay near minimum wage, then half of the workers are going to get paid that much, and it then becomes a wage that you need to live on, even as an adult without any other support. --- Proud member of the Arv The Great is great fan club!!!
