I would also shy away from comparing the American economy to others around the world. Economies in general are very complex formulas with several x factors.

My bottom line is that low end jobs should be a motivator to move up the chain and not a sustainable career. This creates a low end entitlement class that will always require the intelligence of people above them. You can be enslaved without physical shackles.

We cannot make it comfortable for people to remain unskilled, entitled and uneducated. People should never be comfortable with those attributes.

I believe in a safety net within an economy via a minimum wage that allows people to get by during hard times. I do not believe in turning mediocrity into a career choice.
