I have always wondered what good jobs meant?

Wait you mean jobs that require education and effort to obtain?

Jobs that require a skill set, Talent, knowledge, or more that the ability to walk, breathe and transfer a widget from spot A to spot B?

Who are you arguing with? I simply said just because there are lots of jobs available doesn't mean there are lots of good jobs available.

Not arguing with you lol.

Just a response to the MSNBC talking point.

If you have a job that can’t support a family of four maybe you should have thought about your predicament before you decided to procreate?

Ok, but the vast majority of jobs available are low wage service industry or similar jobs. All 300 million of us could go to University to be Rocket Surgeons, but if the majority of the jobs are hotel, shopping mall and fast food, what good would that do?

Well if you’re smart enough to do rocket surgery. You’ll probably be able to find work that can support your family. You adapt to the situation. Make hard choices. But I’m quite sure, there are no rocket surgery capable individuals making burger flipper wages.

If we went pilotless tomorrow why would you do? I know my family wouldn’t starve.

Great. So all 300 million get trained for other high paying jobs, but if the vast majority of the jobs AVAILABLE are low wage jobs, then what?
