Millennials like socialism — until they get jobs

[stranger81]

61. Jesus H. Christ.

I got my first job the summer I turned 13 years old, shoveling ice into eight pound bags for about $1.70/hour, and apart from maternity leave when my daughter was born, I have worked continuously ever since. I've worked cleaning hotel rooms, in a factory, as a personal maid, making ice cream cones at Dairy Queen, as a clerk at a video store, for a loooonnnggg time at various record stores (before MP3s made those hard to come by), as an HR assistant, and, for the last 16 years, as an attorney. Whether I was making $1.70/hr or six figures a year, I have ALWAYS been a socialist.

If you have empathy and concern for others, it doesn't vanish just because you get a job or a pay raise.

Conversely, if you lack empathy and concern for others . . . . well, you oppose policies that would give "free stuff" to those "lazy students" who should just "get a job."
