This is partly the problem with America right now, is that the Entitlement Society somehow feels it's others' problems for their well-being and they have some sort of "right" to a job.
If you got the moxy, drive, and desire, you too could be making 20 million or more a year. But if you don't, then you'll settle for table scraps. If you want better for yourself, you can't wish it true, or make those better off than you pay for your lack of initiative. But with that said, not everyone can be a CEO.
To put it bluntly, like in the navy, if it wasn't issued in your sea bag, it's your problem. If you think you can afford to get married and have a family, do it. If you can't, then sacrifice, get an education (I finished my college degree while working full time, so nobody can say it cannot be done), get a better paying job and then go get and raise your family. Depend on yourself, not others. If you want something bad enough, you'll find a way. If not, you probably need to stay where you are.
