Price fixing only takes place at the very bottom. The jobs i want aren't hiring me and people like me because of their own ineptitude.

It's as FamousRingo described: the private sector has somehow managed to create a labor shortage in a down market because they refuse to invest in labor, because they are way too picky and demanding.

You sure its not the fact that public schools and college education no longer mean you know anything as they graduate everybody. Its easy to point fingers, but most peoples problems start with themselves. I have yet to see motivated hard working people not find jobs, and I have seen plenty of slackers stay unemployed for months or years.

I think it's easier to point fingers at the private sector in this case. They want the perfect candidate, and refuse to see anything otherwise. If i wanted the perfect job and refused to even look at anything else, people would tell me "suck it up and take what's there."

So too should the private sector. Suck it up and hire people instead of thinking the perfect candidate exists. We may not be perfect, but there are many of us out here who could be damn good workers, and in time become "perfect."

Exactly, take the easy way out. Thats the mentality of most people i know who can't find jobs. It is easier to point the finger at the private sector, but that does not make it true. Better to point the finger at themselves and see what they are missing that the private sector wants. 

 

The private secotr is taking whats there. If they need someone they will hire them. But there is no need for them to hire somebody they feel wont be worth it.
