[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 1631349, member: 56035"] typical fear...seriously whats the point of working if ur only entitled to 2 weeks vacation a year or whatever pathetic amount after 1/3 of your working life has been devoted to some company? there was a long list of european countries who had lower unemployment then america during the great recession. unemployment numbers are fudged anyways so its hard to compare. the governments could make it 0% umemployment, but the business class is opposed to that because they are opposed to the government doing anything to begin with, but also it would create pressure on the business community to increase wages which they dont want either. back when america had higher unemployment recently, and the private sector wasnt hiring, the federal government could have done what it did during the great depression: create federal jobs and hire a massive amount of the population. but it didnt because the capitalist political system is so toxic. so instead people suffered while we waited for the business community to decide to hire again. EU gets alot of immigration too. so does america. alot of people outside of EU arent even aware that they have 6 weeks vacation as a right, or free college, etc etc. [/QUOTE]
