Sounds like someone just trying to displace their personal problems on global economics.

You got issues, welcome to the club, now deal with it and quit crying.

Of course it is, and the minute I have a solid piece of evidence that supports his claims. I'll give credit where credit is due.

But quite frankly when you say you want to shoot people, it renders whatever point you might have been trying to make rather meaningless.

It sounds like you are doing what you need to survive. Scraping by is okay until things change and a mixture of ramen and vegetables is not the worst meal you could be eating so this is not horrible.

The key is to make whatever changes are necessary; learn new skills, work for less, two jobs, relocate, live with family/friends, etc.

I know it's not always easy but the alternative of giving up or complaining every day is also not a good thing.

I wish you the best in your endeavors NN...

Well the minimum wage is a bad idea, even for Americans, so I would be against this plan.

The reason I won't work for $2.50 per hour is because I don't need to. I invested in myself to gain education and skills that make my time worth a lot more money.

Um? Small businesses.

As far as employment numbers, the US government is numero uno, followed by Walmart. Skinny's right (but so are you) because most small businesses file as a corporation to avoid liability.
