I tend to be pretty liberal yet this is one topic that I don't side with much of my liberal friends. I think partly because I've went to college and work in salaried positions. I never looked at my job at Office Depot or at Food Lion (Grocery Store) as a perm job or a job that you can seriously consider viable enough to buy a nice house, car, kids though college etc...
In my view Wage Jobs should be for those with no exp and really no resume that need something very entry level. There should be some understanding that this is temp or a stepping stone to move onto another area within the company (i.e. cashier -> head cashier -> supervisor -> Manager -> Store Manager) or until they get a degree. Why do people feel they should be able to do "all those things" (house, car etc) with a Walmart Cashier job? Then I feel companies seem to abuse the system, knowing they pay a very low wage that will be eventually subsidized with welfare or gov benefits. Just my thoughts, curious on what others thing.
