I'm not sure what your trip is however seems to me you are always trying to find excuses to blame the 'man' for peoples issues, no matter what they are. sometimes people have shit lives because they are stupid and lazy or just fucking mean and stupid.
not everything is the 'mans' fault

Making $19 an hour out of college and making min wage out of college is two very different things. I will tell you my trip , I have the ability to look beyond my own nose. The people that buy porn are mostly middle class which is shrinking. Wages are going down the toilet, that starting a factory worker at $11 an hour is considered a good starting wage. I started at that in 1984, that's a problem. A consumer driven economy only works if people have money to spend.
I also talk to the people who work at the places I go (starbucks,panera, etc). Im a friendly guy and I hear how they work two full time jobs to make ends meet. And you are right not everyone is smart, those people were able to make a decent living in a factory but that's all gone. So now they work shit min wage jobs that cost us.
