Those are never the only jobs available, and if they're the only ones a person is qualified for, it's their issue, not anybody else's. Everybody has the ability to work hard and move up or sideways, and we should support a welfare system that also includes the ability to get an education
Every single person I've ever known who is stuck in shitty low tier jobs are shitty punkass bitches who blame all their problems on other people. Hard workers and good employees are virtually never stuck in this problem. However, that isn't the only dynamic, and we've gotten some problems like single mothers supporting children are stuck in these low tier jobs and can't do much to get out of them. First off, the state or other people are not to blame for people who think it's cool to have babies when they're poor, and a solution to this problem involves things like improving the education system so that nobody grows up believing stupid shit like they don't need no rubbers
Again, it always boils down to religion in politics. Get religion out of it, and everything gets better, even dumb policy gradually evolves into good policy as long as religion is out of the game. Currently, the GOP is trying to make a case about how it's a cultural problem that lots of Americans raise their kids to be nitwits, and they're right, but they're wrong in that they don't address the underlying reason that these cultural problems are nurtured: religious idiocy like abstinence-only sex ed
