I disagree, because I know of all low-income families, if the parents are good, and love children love family, desperate efforts to change your fate, will work hard. So not every low-income families.
I dont agree, I think that lowincome families try to work harder to earn more money. But, i guess that maybe they have tried and it didnt work out so they just gave up and dont care anymore.
I dont agree with that at all. Just because someone has low income doesnt mean they always give up, sometimes they cant better themselves anymore then they already are. Sometimes people do give up, but thats not always the case.
I disagree with this statement. My reasons for disagreeing are most people who are unemployed try to find jobs. There are a lot of people unemployed in this harsh economy. Both of my partents are unemployed and are trying hard to find jobs.
I think that low income families work harder than the families that have a higher income. Especially if you are a single parent and have a low income it may be harder.
I Agree because some familys that have a low income because of there jobs think that there income will never go up so they dont try to work hard to raise it, or better them selves.
Dustin no i dont agree with this statement because if the parents love their kids they will do anything and everything posable to make their kids lifes better than theirs
I think that low income families work harder than the families that have a higher income. Especially if you are a single parent and have a low income it may be harder.
No i diagree with the statement giving. I think that if you have a low income or no money that it would encourage you to make more money for you and your family, and not just give up on hope.
If you have a low income and you are still getting bye than why would you need more money you would not spend it so it would just build up till you have so much you would get robbed.
I think that some familys try and work hard to make a better living or try to get a good job with a high income, but when you try and it doesn't happen then most people just give upo because they feel that they have tryed to hard already.
Kerstin, I dont agree with you. Just because someone has low income doesnt mean that they arent going to work to try and make it higher. What if theres a sitiuation were their income cant get any higher then it already is? And sometimes they may try, but get no result. Also, having a low income doesnt nessasarily mean they need to better themselves.
I do and do not agree with that statement. Some people who have low income work hard to make money. But from my own experiences my mom works at a employment agency and sees people come in looking for a job but they don't want one. If they get a job they go to work and don't show up after lunch. Most people who come in there just was unemployment.
No because thier are families or should i say people that work three jobs just to put food on the table and other in the family to at least have a decent amount of money for them and the family
i agree with this statement because my mom has a employee thats works at her store she has 5 kids and a lazy "boyfriend". She is the only money supplyer of the house hold. She only works 25 hours a week. My mom wants to give her more hours but she wont take them.
Kerstin i disagree with you. I think that a lot of people keep on tring. They may have supports that incourage them to strive tords the income that they recieve!
Ben your right, you can always better yourself, but you cant always change everything you want. Sometimes people may be trying really hard, but not succeeding.
I disagree with both Anthony and Kerstin. I think that if they are making low income they will try to better them self to make more for them and there family.
Kerstin you have a good point. Such as of right now. Us teens can work hard with our grades now and when we get to college get good grades also and you can get a job that will offer you a higher income than others.
I agree with what your saying but you wont just a very good job with a high income if you dont try hard enough to get one, some poeple have tried and nothing happens so they just quite trying.
i agree with kerstin 100 % because not all people try to make better of what they have and i disagree with virigina because i think that most familes don't even care about what happenes to them if something already happened to them!
I don't think that you can just get one. They may look at your record, and grades. And say that you got fired from a previous job they may not higher you because they may think that you irresponsible?
NO you can not just "get" a job you have to earn it by being the best at what you do and if you dont show that you really want the job you wont get the job!!!
Mrs.Matysak i think that most people just go and ask for a job but they don't even try to make better of what they have or are trying to get! You can't just "get" a job, you have to earn it someway!
Skyler No, You can't just get a new job. You will have to be good at it and know what your doing. If you can find a new and better job then give it all you got for yourself and family.
Well it depends on what kind of job your looking for. Some you don't need college for and some you just need a high school deploma. Most people who are low income didn't go to college or didn't finish. Or did not finish high school

Kerstin, I think you have a good point but I still believe people can try, and not always get what they want.
-Cathy
byron i agree with your statement because many ppl with low incomes do work hard making extra money.
I also agree with ben's statement. Many people can better them selfs. But some are to lazy to care.
Cathy I think that if you are trying your hardest your always making a change on at least something

How does one go about getting a better job? Can you just "get" one?
Jacob Bickel
Some of the ways you can better yourself is practice more at your task or job!
Kertin
I think everybody cares to make more money ! who doesnt like to have more money, come on!?
nope yu cnt jst get a job that easy especially since the economy isnt all that good

Some ways that you can inprove is that you can pay attention and do what you got to do to get the job done in the end.
You can not always go out and "get a better job". Not all places hire anybody. They mosyly hire who qualifies.
Justice Rowe,
I think that it would take time and effrot to earn your goals and success.
To Mrs. Matty
I don't think that you can just get one. They may look at your record, and grades. And say that you got fired from a previous job they may not higher you because they may think that you irresponsible?

NO you can not just "get" a job you have to earn it by being the best at what you do and if you dont show that you really want the job you wont get the job!!!

Austin
They could try ansd get some help from their boss and see if they could get a better job
I am saying that if you try and get a job with a higher income then you will have more money to do stuff than just work all of the time.
-Kerstin
By working hard to have a better life. Not to give up when the going gets ruff.
-Michael Sustaita
Okay, then what makes somebody qualified?
ms matysak,
some specific ways i can do better is get good grades and plan my future ahead of time.

Skyler
No, You can't just get a new job. You will have to be good at it and know what your doing. If you can find a new and better job then give it all you got for yourself and family.
Arianna
I think if someone wants to get a better job they are going to have to work hard for it!
Justice Rowe,
Maybe your eduacation and what school you graduate your college from.
People who mostly qualifie are people who have done a job similar.
Cathy good thinking I really think you explained yourself well
GOOD JOB
Aidas Raudonis
Gregory
To be qualified for a job you have to have a lot of practic because practis makes perfect...
Good job Justice
Limit
One thing that makes you qualified for a job is what the job is aprehending for you to do.

Great job justice
People who qualify for a job are the people that have had some kind of work in the job they are trying to get andd know what they are doing.

Well it depends on what kind of job your looking for. Some you don't need college for and some you just need a high school deploma. Most people who are low income didn't go to college or didn't finish. Or did not finish high school
i think that if you really try to make your self better i think that your always making something better
