...not true.Things are different today - this is not the 1950s and '60s that the right wants to take us back to.
Yeah, I got up at 5:30am for a paper route and was a bus boy washing dishes in a hot kitchen at a restaurant in high school but I don't see kids doing that kind of menial work today.
I advertised a part-time inventory stocking job a few months ago at a junior college for $10 an hour and got no responses.
And who is going to pick your lettuce and strawberries? Dig your ditches? Clean your fish? Mow your lawn?
You may have anecdotes but that is not the reality.
