I know plenty of jobs that are looking for solid American workers, but when offered, young people just refuse. I know a farmer who grows watermelons. He's paying $10.75 an hour, but the only people he can find are immigrants. This generation is spoiled and selfish, only willing to work for the highest bidder, instead of being willing to help their local farmers.
Yeah cause people have bills to pay and stuff is very expensive now. 10.75 isn’t enough to save for college or trade school. That’s only roughly $5,000 before taxes for what is likely a seasonal job (3 months).
No employer is loyal so idk what you are talking about calling young people selfish. I’m not loyal to any company. I show up, do my job and leave. But if a better job comes up with better pay, benefits and/or better work life balance I will take it. I currently work 6 days a week most of the time 48 hours a week. Once I am done with school and have my degree I am gone. My current employer abuses the hell out of temp immigrant workers.
Instead of blaming young people you should realize that your generation and others voted in these conditions. Why is the farmer taxed so much that he can only offer $10.75? I don’t think farmers should be taxed at all with anything relating to their business.
Immigrants illegal and legal are just a bio weapon by the elites to drive down wages, drive up COL and break down our culture.
Your calculations are based on 40 hours a week. That's plenty of money if you're putting in 60 hours a week, and that's not even factoring in overtime.
Employers are loyal. Not to their employees, but to the shareholders, which is their job. Shareholders are the people who provide the money and expertise to build companies and create jobs. We should all be contributing so that the most productive people have the most money to build more. Selling yourself out to the employer who pays more is part of the problem. This drives up the cost of labor and then drives up the cost of good. I won't sell my soul for a few more dollars an hour. Our country needs people who are willing to work hard and no so overly concerned about making the absolute most money possible.
It isn't the taxes that are the issue for farmers. If you don't make money, you're not paying much in taxes. Food companies are only paying so much for produce. This is because they're trying to increase shareholder value. Increasing prices will only cause more problems. Instead, we need to lower the cost of labor. But that can't be done if young people aren't willing to work.

Crazy how indoctrinated people are that they don't readily see this. Talk about selfish.
Yup and they never consider how between Federal, state and local they payed WAY less taxes then we do at the same age.

He could just pay older workers. Not old. Older. They love working for that wage.
