>>150093337>Cartoons tricked an entire generation of kids tricked into going to college thinking they'd make millions instead of working dead-end jobs
>>150093337Now the joke would be that he did go to college.
>>150093337Just guess the perfect future proof industry bro
>>150093405Yeah they're the trades.
>>150093358It's the usual supply trap>Industry has a lot of demand (College educated workers)>It pays well because of this>"Wow, this industry pays well. Hey everyone, let's go get into this!">Supply massively increases>Pay falls off, demand is bigger than supply>"Wtf they lied"In a way, you could say that garbage wages were the endgoal of encouraging everyone to go to college
>>150093417Not even that's guaranteed. Opportunities for electricians are going up but HVAC is suffering a pretty large crunch.

Oof
>>150093358>>150093390>>150093405>>150093452The problem is people don’t unionize to get higher wages. Everyone thinks they’re better than their fellow workers and want to flex their wealth in the others so they never work together.
>>150096197Because works trusting each other, coming together for a greater good is COMMUNISM!
I should've killed myself before I ever graduated high school. Suicide when you're still young is tragic, not pitiful like it would be if I did it now.

>>150096388The problem is that states go out of their way to make unionizing hard>>150096405Unionize them too, they make laws that make exploitation of foreign labor easy and profitable for corporations
>>150096197Unionizing?>That's communism!Demanding better conditions through passing better labour laws?>That's communism!Hey why is everyone poor and unwilling to have children nowadays?>It's the MEXICANS! or um, it's the INDIANS! or um it's a phyop orchestrated by DA JOOOS >It's never the rich people screwing over the common man.

>>150097687>It's society's fault that my liberal arts degree isn't attracting employers
>>150093784That was my job. They fired me and over 300 other people in my position last month because the company I worked for, the company that outsourced to the company I worked for, and the client all could not agree on how the AI should be evaluated.The level of incompetence was absurd. The company doing the outsourcing did not provide us with the ability to see the client's feedback and instead gave us a 180 page document to use to evaluate the AI (which itself was often useless for the situations they wanted us to evaluate it in).The company that was paying me had their own internal documents which often contradicted the document from the outsourcing company and appeared to be AI generated at times in broken English.Once it finally became apparent that we should have access to the client feedback and were granted this months later, we learned that the client was brain dead and wanted us to tell the AI that obvious malware infested websites were reputable.So they fired like 300 people for doing the job based on the information we were given to do said job all while saying it was because we didn't meet "quality standards".I'm pretty sure the AI is running the companies that are supposedly tard wrangling the AI.

The joke in 2025 would be that the waiter did, in fact, finish college.
>>150097651>>150097795The point you keep missing is that statistically, the middle class is getting more and more screwed over. You refuse to understand this is a systemic problem created by the rich and want to just say it's due to personal failings. But your framework falls apart when you look at the statistics that show everyone (the middle class), and not just individuals complaining on 4chan, are doing worse.
>>150096675>Unionize them tooi think you meant to say euthanize
>>150097869Statistics are only for posting racist Lynn IQ charts or American crime graphs.

>>150093417people who say this don't work in trades and know nothing of what its like to work in them just office workers who wish they spend the last decade of their life working on an oil field
>>150093452When it comes to university, it was a matter of retards putting the cart before the horse.>smart people go to college to advance their knowledge further>have better life outcomes because they're intelligent>some retard: hey people with college degrees have better life outcomes, let's send every retard to college and dumb down the curriculum to oblivion so everyone has a meaningless degree, surely that'll produce better life outcomes>also that'll be $400,000 + tip
>>150096197>The problem is people don’t unionize to get higher wages.No, the problem is that the peasants won't just be happy with being worked like dogs and paid peanuts for it. The only compensation the slaves deserve is the satisfaction of fulfilling their role in society by serving their masters.
>>150097919Are you joking about how conservatives only cherry-pick statistics that prove their worldview and pretend all other statistics are fake?You could be joking or a snake trying to avoid the truth because it hurts your feelings, and things have gotten so bad that I really can't just assume when people say dumb things that they are joking anymore.
Did you finish college /co/?
>>150098035No, I actually went to trade school. With all this shit going on with AI and H1B Indian workers taking all the white collars I'm kind of glad I was too stupid for college.
>>150097913No, I meant unionze them, but I'd euthanize you, sure
>>150098035Yes, but it was over a decade ago in a STEM major before everything became indefensibly gay and retarded.
>>150097869>everyone (the middle class)They ain't everyone, sheltered fuck. You forgot the working class.
>>150096197liberal politics on immigration and unionization are completely at odds with each other more immigration = a larger and more fractured workforce that is also easily replaceablewhich means the worker has less power to negotiate higher wages
>>150098079yeah, they tend to forget "unionize" also means "take sledgehammers and beat migrant scab labor to death for cutting in on your turf".
>>150098074You make a good point. I didn't want my comment to get too bloated. I guess the best phrasing would be "the poor and the middle class". How would you phrase it? "The middle class and the working class"? I always considered the middle class and the working class to be one in of the same. But maybe I am incorrect. I would like to see how you think about these words. Thank you.
>>150098028>Are you joking about how conservatives only cherry-pick statistics that prove their worldview and pretend all other statistics are fake?I'm sure he's joking. Conservatives think science is all gay and fake and even conjured up memes making fun of people who bring up studies and sources, but then will hang unto dear life unto shit that proves them right. Even if they don't understand it and it does not prove them right at all>You could be joking or a snake trying to avoid the truth because it hurts your feelingsBut this is also true, and you see it every other time you try to engage them. You address all of their point and all you'll get is le tranny stfu and sparky quips. They might be straight up skinheads but the minute you confront them, more than half of them will wiggle away and say it's all a joke or treat it like one. It's weirdly nihilistic, but most of these guys are loners and isolated so of course they act like thisThis is encapsulated with the modern blue check on Twitter where they will get paid for post engagement, and thus are incentivized to act fucking retarded so they can get some extra 25 cents
>>150098061there is no reason for an indian to be in a civilized country, fuck you.
>>150097997You don't need to go to college to make good money. Becoming an electrician, plumber or mechanic's an option. The issue are the people thinking it's dirty work and the parents turning their kids away from it. My mom would always shit on it and claim they're jobs for dumbasses. That dumb bitch went to college for 20 years.
>>150098181>That dumb bitch went to college for 20 years.I think I know what kind of degree she was trying to earn: her MRS.
>>150098161>The middle class and the working class"? I always considered the middle class and the working class to be one in of the same. But maybe I am incorrectYou are. Working class are people who didn't go to college and instead went straight to work, usually those of the lower class.>>>150098166>Conservatives think science is all gay and fakeBro you sound like the typical reddit atheist. Fuck off back there, my guy.
>>150098079Immigrants have unionized plenty of times before and gone against their bosses, and the bosses in turn call ICE on them and deport them. ICE and laws like this exist to have a permanent slave caste that you can always replace. If these workers were better paid and had better conditions, the CEOs wouldn't have the motive to so this. Because they'll have to treat them like any other worker, who also deserves respectWanting better conditions and pay and some respect is as intrinsic to being human as eating and fucking is, but you have an ideology that hinges on not viewing others as human
>>150098135Unions are a jewish thing anyways, I'd gladly let Jeff bezos fuck my daughter if I didn't have to hear jugaboo babble
I was wondering where the politics containment thread was. Lately they have had South Park OPs, but you guys found a way to make a FOP thread work.
>>150098222>If these workers were better paid and had better conditionsThey ain't citizens, nigga. Why the fuck do we gotta waste OUR resources on them? We're already trillions in debt.
>>150098179Calm down and breathe in the cyanide gas
>>150098079That sounds like a regulation problem.Companies hire migrant workers/ immigrants/illegals and then pay them less than the minimum wage required for the job as mandated by the government because these people have no rights or protections from the government of the country they are working in (even if the law says they do), or they just don't know any better.If the illegals are removed then companies either lobby to get the immigration laws changed to get their slave labor back, or they move the jobs to other countries that have less oversight while claiming it is to make their product cheaper for the consumer. They then spin this in the news to try to get their way and paint any opposition as the current trendy buzzword to hate.Companies would rather let the food in the fields ready to harvest rot than pay the hands that have to harvest it the minimum wage required to do the job.Big businesses deserve nothing but contempt and scorn for creating this infinite loop of social self-sabotage.
>>150098035Yes, I did. Though I wish I had studied a different major, I got a job now, so I know things will go well in the future.
>>150098219>Bro you sound like the typical reddit atheist. Fuck off back there, my guy.t. 2016 r/the_donald refugee
Since when /co/ turned into /pol/
>>150098267okay so why aren't liberal politics tackling this. they always see the forest before the trees when it comes to peoples issues with immigration. not that the right is any better, they want to deport illegals but do nothing about the people who hire them
>>150098257>They ain't citizensI don't give a shit. Foreign policy is a whole other topic, and meddling in these other countries and destabilizing region after region, engaging in drug trafficking with right wing militias, wars for oil, etc etc etc directly cause migrant crisis in the first place.
>>150098277>Experts are better in bed, experts agree
>>150098300why does the working class have to pay the price for the policies of the rich?
>>150098294>okay so why aren't liberal politics tackling thisBecause they're neoliberals, who like laisez faire capitalism and get tons of donations from ceo's, Kamala ran on making a border wall. Also having a "lethal military"These people aren't the commie hippies or blue haired college students that fox news wants you to believe, they're the same as the republicans The DNC needs a massive and brutal reconfigeration that removes the neolib dinos
>>150098300Imagine typing this shit out as if the people responsible for terrible foreign policies and destabilizing other countries will ever suffer for their decisions. are you fifteen?
>>150098294Because lobbyists don't care if the politicians are left or right. It takes a special type of person in politics to not be motivated by money, or to see through the utter bullshit that a lobbyists is saying while they're also sicking the goon squad on any public speaker who tries to inform the elected official of other points of view on the issue.
>>150097808Sorry you lost your job Anon, but when the AI bubble finally bursts it will be so fucking funny. Billions invested and it's all going to get wiped out dotcom style. People never learn.
>>150098332Migrants are part of the working class, also i already explained my pointsIs refusing to destabilize the middle east and once again Latin America going to hurt the working class? No, you fucking retard. But that's what Trump wants to do now, sending ships to Venezuela
>>150098352>bro the status quo, don't think of anything betterSo you admit I'm right and that there's a huge problem to solve at the top, but you wanna lay over and complain about whatever the Heritage Foundation tells you to complain aboutNice talking to you
>>150098360Sure, it'll be funny. But will I get a new job because of it?The job market is beyond grim right now. You can't even get a job stacking shelves if you don't have "prior experience".
>>150098413Preaching to the choir, fren. That’s partly why I want the crash ASAP, it will force governments of the world to finally do something about this shit that’s just been festering for the past decade. Terrible job market, high cost of living, something’s gotta give.
>>150098373dude we just need to close the door. thats all
>>150098035No. I went to CC for theater and dropped out. My parents didn't support me whatsoever. I'd like to make it seem like I am just another gay artist who's just to big of a fag to appreciate their parents, but they didn't even like me saying I wanted to go in to IT and every time I wanted to switch to something else they hated it while also convinced that CC isn't real and being ashamed I even drove past a CC.
>>150098166Nah, it was self-evident long before that study confirmed it.
>>150098219I always thought "working class" just meant people who worked for their money as opposed to the stuck trading/ownership class who make money just sitting on their asses.
>>150098619all blue collar workers are working class but not all working class workers are blue collar
>>150098291>Since when /co/ turned into /pol/since leftists decided to shit up comics and cartoons
>>150096197You can't just force yourself to get more money because at some point the money peaks and stops flowing in.So either you make the product or service more expensive but that comes with the risk of nobody buying it.
>>150098619Class is a spook.
>>150098035Yes. Community->main. Fell for the comp sci meme and barely use it. Mainly just a paper key to bypass first gate of resume applications as a "useful" degree so not much. Currently have a relatively nice job that helps me get out of my comfort zone and get experience helping with project management and other stuff but I chalk that up more to luck and some prior job work
>>150098684That's mostly a problem with being a publicly trades company, a private company that just maintains the same revenue indefinitely can keep chugging on forever without any need for growth.
>>150098695Me but I'm right wing and I hate black workers and want them melted for fuel and anyone brown, i hate workers period, I'm an aristocrat of the soul anyway
>>150093358Yeah they got paid off by colleges to do that.
Stop squirming twerp!
>>150097966or out of touch boomers
>>150096823I actually got close to getting a job but they found someone else.
>>150093358Dead end jobs now demand degrees for no reason.
>>150093337Sigh, and here I finished college, have knowledge in two other languages (French and Spanish), some ERP knowledge like SAP and Power BI, not to mention the obvious Microsoft stuff yet I've been unemployed for more than 6 months at this point, should I just off myself?
>>150098035I'm glad i finished high school.
>>150100988Here's the reason. CEOs, large business owners, corporate, whoever is in charge is only concerned with the bottom dollar, their job is to make as much money RIGHT NOW as possible to appease the stock holders because if numbers are not going up forever and ever, then the company is obviously failing.So they cut costs, they get rid of entire departments sometimes. One of those departments is often the hiring department that actually knows what the company needs, what jobs need to be filled, and what positions actually need to be created for the long term success of the company.With the hiring departments gone or severely downsized, the business leaders are free to feed their wish list of qualifications to an AI and it craps out an auto generated job posting that is totally divorced from reality asking for 5 years of experience and a college degree to work as a burger flipper.The AI is a programmed yes-man ass kisser and companies love having fewer internal departments giving them cold, harsh reality checks to what the human condition actually is.So that's the reason.
>>150100988Yeah a lot of entry level position at retail stores in my are started requiring college degrees, doesn't matter what just a degree.
>>150093358You see why Homer Simpsons has a job in a nuclear plant (and 100 additional jobs) He has a massive income.

>>150093820My friend's family are a bizarre mix of politicians and morticians. He went to mortuary college and a regular school (for psychology so he could council and console grieving families) then entered the family business. He earns about as much as I do but being that he doesn't have a family of his own and lives with his mum, he's got more pocketable income than I do and I'm sure once his uncle dies and he takes over the business, he'll be making a mint.>>150097700>penile fracturelmaoI actually had /another/ friend who went into porn and got a penile fracture. He showed me the scars on his dick from where they had to flay it open to do whatever to it and stitch it back up. Fucking wild.He hasn't done porn in about a decade now, afaik, and he got fat. If you're reading this Justin, Jess says you're still her lobster.
>>150096197>unionizeUnions literally only make things worse. At best they take a chunk of your wages and offer nothing in return.
