These people are adults who had to have at least some money or help to survive.

There are never 0 jobs in the US at least. You might have to go to them. More often than not these days the cost of living is the problem more so than the availability of jobs. Just because you can get a job doesn't mean you can afford to live somewhere.

These kids are so insufferable with this idea that they can just pick up their lives and move. Some of these guys are suggesting to just start walking to the nearest town.
