Not only is it just money figures it’s the idea that these middle class students are going to college for several years on a promise that if they get that degree they will be able to live comfortably, and due to the current state of economy this is just not true. Larger companies are either misusing or not getting the benefits of the government and therefore there have been job cuts in professional positions that would have served as a landing point for these college degree students ("Occupy Wall Street"). Now that there is no jobs these students are left with tens of thousands of dollars in debt with no way to earn money because they are over qualified for lower positions but do not have the experience to land one of the limited jobs left in the professional white collar business world. Now this is a major topic of dispute because a lot of the country believes that they just need to work hard and stop complaining because that’s what they did and they now live happily, but the truth is they cannot do that. This is why these thousands of individuals are marching on Wall Street to voice their ideas on them and tell them that they their greed and no care for the rest of the nation is what is killing us this very day, and until some sort agreement I made it looks like the protests will not end("Occupy Wall Street").
Today’s real estate and mortgage market has led to something that is somewhat scary. Most people in America are looking for the perfect home, their American dream, and your dream home needs to be a dream, it doesn’t need to become a nightmare and if you buy a home with no money in savings for emergencies then everything that can go wrong will [The Early Show, House Hunting].

1 The Pursuit of the American Dream Yuma N. Vuono COM 156 University Composition and Communication II November 6, 2010 Regina Kleiner Axia College of University of Phoenix 2 The pursuit of the American Dream Many Americans strive to fulfill the all-American dream: career, marriage, homeownership, family, and ultimately, retirement. Most people are either ignorant or misinformed about the benefits of being a home owner, especially during this strained economy and may think homeownership is out of reach. Most people believe that renting or leasing a home or apartment is more economical compared to the responsibilities of owning a home. Statistically, owner-occupied housing provides benefits to both the homeowners and to society (Berson & Neely, 1997). Throughout history, many presidents believe homeowners contribute significant benefits to social and political stability by strengthening citizen's stakes in their communities as well as their government.
Some of the disadvantages of the piecework pay system is that when the firm is slow at production, the worker will see it in their paycheck. If there isn't enough work then employees are limited to the number of units they can produce. This can bring on a lot of stress to the employee since the paychecks are not the same as they used to be. For example in the HRM incident I know that Bob wants to use his bonus to buy his wife a new car for her birthday. If he doesn't receive the bonus then he is short money for the down payment for the car, therefore he is then left stressed and disappointed to know he does not have the full amount to put down for what he had in mind to give his wife for her
Renting is better than Owning a House Com/156 November 11, 2011 Axia College In society, everyone very much dreams of owning his or her own home, however; renting an apartment or house can be just as rewarding and beneficial to an individual. While some think that renting is just a waste of money, however, there are many advantages when it comes to renting an apartment rather than owning a home. One of the major advantages of renting is that as a renter, you are not responsible for repairs or any other maintenance, aside from things like mowing the lawn or perhaps changing the filters. This doesn’t mean that you’re not responsible for damages such as putting a hole in the wall or even burning something like the carpet by being careless when smoking a cigarette, or even some water damage that you, as the tenant may have caused. Therefore, it means that the renter is not responsible for repairing of some sort and things like the roof and air conditioner.
This causes the preference to save money or not to spend at certain periods of time. The removal of the tax deduction on mortgage interest will reduce the demand for houses. If there is no benefit such as this to buying a home, many consumers will feel that there is no point in getting a house. The government will do whatever they feel is best for the country, but when you look at certain things in our country such as tax deductions. They will have the power to draw a
In the past, one could support their family without a college education and still have the means to live comfortably. However that is not the case anymore. In today’s society all of the high paying jobs require and demand college experience. These jobs that are at the high paying end of the spectrum have changed their basic requirements because of technology rapidly increasing day by day, getting more complicated and difficult-which makes them want to make sure that their employees are properly trained. This however, does not sit well with people who are becoming unemployed or who have seniority at their current jobs.

Univ 1010 November 19 2014 Increasing Minimum Wage Jon Corzine said “No family can get rich off of minimum wage in fact the current minimum wage does not even lift a family out of poverty” Minimum wage should be increased because today in America its impossible to rise from poverty on a 7.25 an hour job. When minimum wage was first put into action it was done so with the purpose of helping people live a better life and improving overall welfare, but instead of improving welfare people ended up on welfare. How can minimum wage improve someone's life when they are only making $15,080 a year and the poverty line for a family of four is at $23,850 and for a single person it is $11,945, although it keeps one person out of poverty,
