If Walmart starts hiring greeters with degrees it doesn't mean that a Walmart greeter is a "skilled" or "educated" position.

$30,000 is a great salary for people without a degree. More than fair.
I think everyone got that except Ytownfootball

No but I knew Joe way back when he was a nobody electrician.

But he has since gone to the dark side. The 'bearing' side! He has been converted. :p

I said before I'm NOT arguing anything, just giving an opinion on the statement.

Seems the opinion is what you don't like and that's fine. I've lived on both sides on the fence on this issue and both sides carry equal blame in my opinion.

Way to pull ANOTHER straw man.

Do you know what a straw man is? You keep arguing points that were never made.

No one ever said that people with bachelor's degrees don't work in auto factories on the floor.

No one ever said that people with bachelor's degrees weren't going to apply for these jobs.

No one that these workers didn't have some sort of skill. It's called unskilled labor because that is what manufacturing jobs are by definition. Common labor.

I never said that I didn't like any of these facts, nor that I didn't like your opinion that many people that have these jobs have skills and have degrees. You're the one who keeps saying otherwise.

OK...unbunch your panties...I won't discuss it anymore, nor will I point out a few things that seem to be being overlooked in my opinion.

I wasn't the one presenting straw man arguments.
