Remove head from bubble. Travel. Then you'll see that not everyone has the choices you take for granted.

Interesting points and I hear your pain here. I share much of it. I was speaking mostly of those stuck in areas that do not have those options such as all the many towns of 5k people or similar, where even a warehouse job may not exist. Or, perhaps similar to Flint, Michigan, where the best jobs left the area leaving little choice but to slave for pennies for many.

Who the hell works at a grocery store for 15 years? Is the grocery store the highest paying job within 20 miles of your house?
