If the parents of the “natives” didn’t spoil them by giving them allowances instead of requiring them to go to work, they would have no choice but to take whatever jobs are available if they wanted any spending money. I read years ago that the old A & S dept store in downtown Bkln provided a bus service to take young people from the ghetto to the A & S in one of the Jersey malls because the spoiled children of the suburbanites felt they were too good to work the store jobs they felt were beneath them and the parents enabled that attitude. If the parents put their collective feet down an insisted, “no work, no spending money” there would be no trouble filling jobs without immigrants legal or otherwise.When I was in college, even though I had a NY Regents scholarship which took care of a number of things, I would get odd jobs time to time either as a messenger or, one holiday season, a package wrapper for Bloomingdale’s to give me spending money for various things I wanted. |
