People newly entering the workforce having completed their schooling will have no interest in taking these jobs that are menial jobs beneath the abilities they have been schooled for. Even if they do take these poor quality jobs they will harbor a resentment.

This BIGLY job increase is really a lose-lose from what I see. I would rather see the US government fund basic research incubator jobs that these newly trained workplace entrants are qualified for -- there are ways to offer opportunities at low starting wages with profitability incentives or goal based incentives -- people learn work ethics -- if you force someone to work the best you will do is create a resentful and docile slave most of the time.

If some immigrant is happy flippin' your burger he won't be spitting in it before it gets wrapped and sent down the line.
