The Ring Of Truth

From Addicting Info:
The economy is hiding the fact that employers are not getting their way as often as they’d like. With four jobless applicants for every open position, companies can pick and choose. But they are choosing older and older workers, which is creating for them a long-term problem as these workers will not be available in another 10-20 years. And they know this.
But the Republican candidates clearly do not. To Paul Ryan, through his Ayn Rand tinted glasses, the new generation needs to be in the workplace slaving away for their corporate overlords for just enough money to pay for scraps of food and a run down apartment. They should be grateful for the scraps that fall from the table of the élite. And their lack of gratitude is a moral failing in Ryan’s world view.
Those darned kids.
