" ekim.
YES illegal aliens have taken these and other jobs.
Don’t try and include illegal aliens with legal immigrants.
It’s like comparing apples to oranges.
I have seen teens and others that wanted to work, but there has been an illegal alien adult that’s has the job.
And yes I did report them to ICE.
I see you failed to comment on the other points I made so I can only think you want to keep quiet about the invasion of the United States and other governments controlling our politicians.

" NO teen jobs have not been taken by imigrants. The have been taken by people who are actually interested in working. I have seen a teen in years who had or wanted work. It shows in everything they don't do. The self entitlement is crazy. Absent parents don't help. "

" Not only rising prices are to blame but also the decrease in jobs teenagers used to hold.
Babysitting, fast food
And it’s not only that, but the jobs the illegal aliens take from factories and construction.
They don’t just pick produce
New York like Chicago is a sanctuary city for illegal aliens that take the jobs that were traditionally held by these young people.
The Mexican government has organized a march on May 1st here in the United States to try to bring pressure to bear on our government to give illegals amnesty so they can keep the jobs they have stolen from the legal Americans.
Doubters.
This year’s demonstrations will actually be organized by a new group that is sanctioned by the Mexican government.
Founded last year in Mexico City, the First Parliament of Mexican Migrant Leaders Living in the U.S.A. was formed to give illegal alien Mexicans a voice in America’s political system.
The body consists of 46 members representing 23 states.
Incredible as it may seem, a foreign government openly created a sort of congressional representative for the illegal population of the United States.
It isnt about race.

" As pointed out by willtwannabe illegals are part of the problem but so is the minimum wage increases that make it necessary for some small businesses to cut back on employees or go to illegals to cut costs. This is really an issue for food-based businesses that now have to pay more for foodstuffs as a result of ethanol mandates. There are real consequences to “progressive” feel good policies. "

" When I glanced at the title of the article I thought it said, "Teens turn to theft.." I guess it would be a little more financially lucrative. "

" To alwayssomething. Finally, someone else who can see the forest for the trees! Gas prices, however, won't be the only reason the Second Great Depression will come soon. A middle class weakened by outsourcing while being heavily invested in a stock market dependent heavily on a financial services sector that has engaged in wildly irresponsible behavior, the subprime mortgage fiasco being only the first and most obvious example. An incredibly high national debt in conjunction with a tax-phobic voter base. A populous heavily in credit card debt with no savings, preferring to engage in gluttonous materialism instead. Add to this the fact that the Dow Jones has always been heavily correlated with the demographics of the 45-54 year old sect. Old enough to have money, but not old enough to be stashing away tons of money for retirement, this group spend the most on non-essential items than any other group, and their numbers are going to PLUMMET at the end of this decade. Together, these factors, along with others, will combine to decimate our economy. Think you lost money when the tech bubble burst? You ain’t seen nothing’ yet! "

" It may be good for teens to be thrifty, but it would also be good for them to be able to have work experience before they have to enter the "real world." "

" The traditional teen jobs have been taken by illigal immigrants. just one more effect of our porous borders. Go to any burger joint and see. "

" Ah, the good 'ol boomin' Bush economy. There's no crappy jobs for teenagers because adults need to work 3 of them to survive. Uniquely American! "

" Teens are not thrifty because they want or need to. They do it because it's A) trendy and B) the only way to find oriignal clothing. "

" I said it before and will say it again...if government doesn't see the writing on the wall they are totally blind!!! All the signs are there.....if they don't do something about the gas prices we are going to be sliding into a depression. Ask around at some of the older generation who lived through the depression they'll tell you. They lived thru the depression...they can see it coming...it all boils down to the gas prices. It affects EVERYTHING!!!! "

" but of course it is simply not affecting us here in our "bubble". "

" This is good. Frugality was fact becoming a lost art in our culture with the greatest generation dying off and being replaced by self-indulgent and recklessly impulsive baby boomers and gen-Xers. This will prepare them for life in the falling empire that is America. "

" It's good to see teens being thrifty more. I'll be interested to hear how well the new Hollister and all the other teenybopper stores at Eastland do with the economy suffering like it is. "

" Time to grow up kids! After school you will have to put a roof over your head, fill the 'frig AND pay taxes,,,oh my! And, stuff is not getting any better. "
