Blue Collar vs White Collar Jobs


The economy here in America is definitely in the dumps and we are heading past a recession soon and possibly into a depression that could be just as bad or worse than the last one in the 1930s.  I recommend to many friends, family and Americans, save your money for a rainy day.

Second item, blue-collar jobs are what is needed in America not white-collar jobs. Reasoning is simple as proven now by the economy and over time it is the blue-collar jobs and service that makes America’s economy run. We allowed manufacturers to ship jobs overseas and our blue-collar people now line the streets as homeless, hungry, and begging for food. On top of that the few that could transfer over from blue-collar to white-collar are not fully prepared or educated for the white-collar market and the positions are few and far between.

So to help solve this problem if you ask me, 1) Even the markets and trade balance, stop imports from China, Japan and other countries who are taking over our economy and our jobs. 2) Innovation is needed and incentives to bring back manufacturing companies to America and jobs. So, give Manufacturers tax breaks to bring the jobs back here, and find people with new ideas on items we can manufacture and sell to the world.

As President Obama said, Americans are the best workers in the world and hardest workers too, but their one fault in my opinion is really greed. So, Americans if you want jobs, slow down the greediness of your Unions too. Much like in the past, when Uniroyal and others went overseas, they were paying the highest wages and benefits to all their employees, what forced them out and to leave, the greediness of the Unions and Employees, so don’t get overly greedy anymore.

Most average Americans just want a decent paying job, medical and dental benefits and to be able to survive and pay their way. White collar jobs while able to do this are not fillable by all, education is one part or it, second  there are only so many white-collar jobs available too. Lets face facts, America didn’t go to the white-collar industry to build weapons for wars, they didn’t go to the white-collar industry for  building our economy, it was built on the blue-collar jobs and people, the everyday, man and woman who gets up and go to work each day for 8 or 10 hours and tries to bring home a pay check each week. Lets get back to what we need to be and who we really are in the U.S.A. .
