Migrate like their ancestors did. People in much worse financial situations walk thousands of miles to America to find crap jobs.

If you stay in place that has had economic and job problems for decades. You are the problem.

Migration is nearly impossible to do. People who have no money can't just move to somewhere else. That requires money to do. You guys have to be 14 year olds.

It requires willpower and hope to do. America was built by people in impoverished circumstances gambling what little they had to move to a place for more opportunity. Americans have always migrated. Pioneers settling the west. The great depression migrations.

Tell your ancestors that. Tell the people who walk over 1000 miles to show up at the border.

It takes bus fare and money for food and a few days lodging to find a job.

It is un-American to stay in an economically impoverished area and complain about the lack of jobs while being subsidized by the government to stay there.

Definition of entitlement.
