Huffington Post - Why Many Unemployed Workers Will Never Get Jobs. So this scumbag that is supposed to be a motivational speaker and writer wrote an article in the Huffington Post about how the reason why young people don't have jobs is because they have the wrong attitude. Lets examine the points he attempts to make.
He starts by saying that, "Despite steady but slow economic improvement, unemployed workers aren't finding jobs." First of all, the economy is not improving. Here is a little article from The Economic Collapse - The “Economic Recovery” Continues: Businesses Are Being Destroyed Faster Than They Are Being Created. The article has some nice links including one to the Brookings Institute which points out that businesses are going away quicker than they are being created. If that isn't enough, all you have to do is read the labor statistics to know that we are losing jobs faster than we are creating them. In fact, the only people the economy is improving for is the top .1%. The bottom 99% is making less and less each year.
He next explains that the solution is job training. Seeing as how he is hired by companies to give that type of training and motivate employees, it seems sort of self serving; but, lets say he is a true believer and doesn't know much about economics, I could live with that. It is what he says next that really ticks me off. He says, "Despite billions of dollars invested in job skill training, it's not helping to reduce the unemployment rate, get more people back to work, and raising the standard of living. Why?" He then explains why, "Thanks to years of economic prosperity, government entitlements, union contracts and most recently a generation of helicopter parents, many workers from aging Baby Boomers to the young adults known as Millennials don't have the motivational skills to achieve their own success, to keep themselves safe, to avoid a personal crisis, and to get themselves out of a jam."
Wait a second, we are losing jobs and businesses and the problem is that people expect to get a job. How is that logical if unemployment is so high and we are losing millions of jobs. How do you blame young people for the over 40 million jobs we lost when they were still in elementary school? THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH JOBS FOR THE PEOPLE WHO WANT ONE, that is a fact and those jobs were shipped off to Communist China, not because of people just enterring the workforce; but, because of a greedy group of people who benefited from this country and don't care about America. That is the truth.
Here is the truth, I have over 40 years of work experience in both the public sector and private industry, I am a physical wreck; but, with all that experience, if I wanted another job (I am retiring), I wouldn't find any competition from some young kid fresh out of college. Lets say you are hiring a salesman who gets paid commission, would you hire a guy with 30 years of experience or a kid fresh out of college and no experience?
This jerk is blaming the victim and says that people should not expect to get a pension or medical or any benefits. Wait a second, he doesn't say anything about the people who employ him and get paid bonuses when the bankrupt their companies. He belittles the people of this country who want a job; but, expect it to pay him enough to have a place to live and food. Oh, he even attempts to use God and says, "I recently mentioned to someone that "God helps those who help themselves." Their response was to tell me God never said that. That is true by the way -- it's not actually in the Bible. But they missed my point." He's right, that isn't in the bible and he clearly misses the points made in the bible. The bible says to pay the worker his due and that we have a chance to know Jesus everyday by helping those in need.
He talks about pulling yourself by your own bootstrap. How are young people supposed to do that when the banks stole all the boot straps. I may be old and not in great shape; but, I worked for a long time and out performed everyone around me for decades and was well paid for it. I am tough on younger people and tell them that they are the only ones that can make their career; but, I also tell them that it is going to be a lot harder and take a lot longer and they will get a lot less. Lets be honest, selfish corporate interests sold out the United States for a quick dollar and have destroyed this country. That in and of itself is bad enough; but, to blame the kids who will have to live wish this is treason, it is un-American and disgusting.
When 10,000 people apply for 100 jobs you cannot tell me that 9,900 did not get a job because they were not motivated enough. People in France have jobs and have a real low productivity compared to Americans. Lets talk about productivity of workers, ours is about the highest, we work longer and harder than European country and with fewer benefits. He doesn't even talk about productivity of workers because that would show what a liar he is. You should also know that our workers productivity has continually increased while compensation has continually remained flat or decreased. How can we have such a highly productive workforce if it is all lazy unskilled people?
Everytime you see someone attacking the workers for expecting to be paid or have jobs in this country, let them know what liars and scum they are. Let them know that you understand that they are blaming the victims of their crimes and selfishness. Do you really want to live in the country these people are creating where your children cannot find work and get blamed for it?

Taxed For Every Mile, How Many Times Will I Say I Told You So
CBS Los Angeles - Sen. Introduces Bill To Test Out Taxing Motorists For Every Mile They Drive. Years ago I wrote about this and days ago I mentioned it again. There are no accidents. The long term plan is to charge everyone for every mile they drive, that is the plan and mentioned that years ago. I talked about how it was being tested in Oregon and Washington state later. Now two senators in California have introduced a bill in California to do just that on a "voluntary" basis. What a lie. It may start voluntary; but, it will end up mandatory. I wrote about how it will happen at least once and have mentioned it many times.
If we all fight it, they will not be able to pass it and they know that so they will divide and conquer and you will be in favor of it for electric and hybrid vehicles. Do you remember when people who bought hybrids could use the carpool lanes even when they drove by themselves and then they stopped being able to do that, you had to have bought your car before a certain date. New hybrids do not get that right. They just wanted to get people to buy hybrids to prime the industry.
A problem I face when I know what is going to happen is that I can never really be sure if I have discovered the intent or merely see how a thing will evolve and be used down the road (excuse the pun). Be that as it may be, this is what is coming and then some more things. Oh, I forgot. Remember a couple of days ago when I posted an article about how the Federal government was going to allow states to charge for the use of the interstates when they had never been allowed to before? Think maybe this is a coincidence? It is not, it was planned. They did not come up with this bill in two days, it takes longer than that, it takes a lot of thought to write a bill; but, if you introduce it to soon then the fact that we are all being played becomes obvious to any who bother looking and understand how these things are done and maybe has done them too.
The news report goes on to interview a person who bought a hybrid to save gas. They claim they already pay enough; but, it is obvious they pay little to maintain the roads because they have a hybrid. They pay less than people who do not have hybrids because they use less gas; but, in reality hybrids are heavier and take a heavier toll on the roads. That is just a fact. This is how you are being set up, most people do not own hybrids and will find it unfair that people who do, don't help maintain the roads they ride on. Heck, the average hybrid owner has more money than the average guy owning an average car, that will come up at some time as it must if we are to allow them to divide and conquer.
Lets get back to the article that I posted a couple of days ago about how it was now going to be legal for states to tax people for riding on the interstate. How could they possibly charge people for miles traveled if some of those miles were on the interstate? Answer is, they couldn't legally. See the pattern yet? I have some very smart readers, some very smart readers in particular and I know a lot about transportation as should be obvious. I can smell the future by looking at the infrastructure, the roads and inroads. Another poor pun. I like puns, they are the lowest form of humor and I always shoot for that.
Nobody complained, or very few, when buying a hybrid no longer got you a free pass on vanpool lanes. Nobody will complain when people who buy hybrids are "allowed" to voluntarily pay a per mile tax for using the roads. Once they make the law mandatory for all hybrids, nobody will complain or at least not enough. They want to see what percentage will voluntarily do it anyways and it will be more than you think, they picked the right crowd. They voluntarily bought hybrids and paid more to save the earth. They also tend to be more affluent.
Once the first two steps are complete, we will all be given the opportunity to pay our mileage tax or a gas tax, that will lead to more people buying hybrids. Finally, all travel taxes will be based on mileage each year and now lets think the infrastructure that would be needed to accomplish such a thing. You would have to be able to require every vehicle to have some sort of tracker and be able to record their movements. Fortunately, that infrastructure is already in place. Remember when I wrote about how just about all local roads are now under the Federal government as part of the national highways system, oh, and that was done in order to bring in universal wi-fi which conveniently allows the FCC to monitor all roads under existing law?
Maybe once again, I was just lucky in being able to tell you years ago how this was all going to develop. My ex did tell me that I had lost my once incredible mental abilities, her words, not mine. I still think she was wrong; but, sometimes I wish she was right. Problem is, even she wouldn't tell you that today. It is a voluntary program that allows people who own hybrids to help pay for the roads, who could be against that? How much money would you donate towards stopping this bill?
