...has a job!
I am not going to rant about my own bad experiences with the state. Too many to mention. Instead I offer this:
There are many types of micro-societies in the U.S. I would like to focus on two: those based around education, learning, and constant process re-engineering, and those based on an umbrella industry that supplies the livelihood for the entire region in question. The former, most of CT, NH, CA, MA, WA, parts of TX, Atlanta, are thriving economic centers full of bright ambitious people. The latter however, like Steubenville and most any city on the Ohio River, died years ago and have yet to realize it. The problem arises when a region bases their entire future not on education, constant progress, societal updates, and technological advancement, but rather, on the steel industry. Nobody in the Ohio Valley planned far enough ahead to think what they would do if steel collapsed, so, when steel collapsed, they were left with nothing. They are still waiting for steel to be revived, while the mills cut more people every month. The majority of residents collect some kind of welfare benefit. You can buy a house for $30,000. Children play in the road like it's their front-fuckin' lawn. Heroin is abundant.
As far as the job market is concerned, it is the theory of 10's. People in management positions in the Ohio Valley are, on average, intellectual 6s. 6s will not hire 7s, 8s, 9s, or 10s, out of fear. I have bosses at work who can barely read/write, spell their own names. I can not get a promotion or more hours to save my life. Argh, I'm ranting. Sorry.....
