The problem is wages are flat. You spoke about paying your starting or the avg wage I dont remember which was $11 an hour. My starting wage at gm in 1984. Wages are flat but everything got much more expensive. To call them lazy is easy.
also as far as gov handouts, I assume after you were in the service your college was paid for with the GI bill. You said no to child tax credit for your kids?
