So what?
Since we transformed our economy into a service/consumer based economy, these are the jobs available.
Are you serious? “Provide”? For a family?

These are the jobs our economy creates.
You are missing the point. The consumer based economy is supported by the service industry. The service industry doesn’t lead it. I am not saying they should be making min wage from 30 years ago or even 10 years ago. I am saying that unskilled labor cannot and really should not provide sufficient income to support a family.
Even Costco who pays their employees and well and who has tremendous success in retention does not pay them enough to support their families on their own

Why shouldn’t they be treated as identical cogs *by the government? * That’s equality. Of opportunity. You also have to remember the government’s objective. The Mission.
It is not and cannot be to ensure the best possible outcome for each individual. Government deals in trends, not cases. Groups, collectives. Not individuals.
And it is a self-licking ice cream cone. It indoctrinates to accept the very system it creates to achieve its own objectives.
Intelligent, educated people think. Is it productive for a government to have an intelligent, educated population from which all it requires is taxes and GDP? Thinking people challenge, does a government want challenges?
From the age of 5, we are required to attend school, usually government school, and get indoctrinated in a dogma which must be approved by…government.
All media must have a license issued by…government… to operate.
Medicine, law, engineering, any field requiring intelligence must be licensed by… government.
And government has convinced us that this are for our own good. To protect us, not from it but from people just like us. From childhood we are indoctrinated to rely on government, only government can do, government is benevolent.
Everything government does “for us” is designed to keep us ignorant, docile and lazy. Tax-GDP NPCs.
Our betters, who attended Harvard Kennedy School, will do our thinking for us. They’ll let us know what we need and think. What the rules are.
You want the best possible outcome for a child? You’re going to have to homeschool them.
The system is designed to produce NPCs.

Are they? Ok then. Good luck.
“We” didn’t. Government did.
Any adult making min wage after 90 days is either not trying or stupid or both.
Then don’t have a family.
we have computers that will think for you… schools will teach you how to obey the computer
Are you comparing apples to apples? Does Europe have 70% of Black children born to single mothers? Does Europe have 50% of Hispanic children born to single mothers? That’s where the biggest problems are.

Good post. This is one of the big government lies libs seek to push on the ignorant voter. They love to preach about being big supporters of public schools when either they and/or their children went to private schools for one and this idea that government can create equity through public schools.
The take away from the book, is married couples provide an environment that has a better chance if raising kids with “better” results. Race is another data point that shows the same type of results.

It’s not race.
And highest Indian and Mexican populations.
Idaho might be an outlyer.
Homeschool all the way.
Well, they could have put the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob to narrow things down but they wanted to leave it ambiguous enough so voters today can be blinded to the only choices offered this election cycle; Mammon or Ba’al.
In the post I responded to you specifically mentioned divorce rates in the US vs other countries.
In states like NJ the minimum wage to comfortably provide one with the so-called American Dream would be about $200,000 per year.
In NJ the poorer school districts get a boatload of money from the state, nonetheless:
