Bernie Sanders thinks so. So does Cory Booker and Kirsten Gillibrand. And according to a Rasmussen poll earlier this week, so do almost half of all Americans. Forty-six percent of respondents support government-guaranteed jobs for everyone, although the wording leaves the kind of job somewhat ambiguous:
Senator Bernie Sanders is looking ahead to the 2020 presidential election with a proposed federal government program that guarantees all Americans a job with health insurance. Nearly half of voters like the idea.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 46% of Likely U.S. Voters favor a proposal to create a federal jobs program that would guarantee every American at least a $15-an-hour job with health benefits. Forty percent (40%) are opposed, while 15% are undecided.
The question did not identify the proposal with Sanders or mention that it has the support of fellow Democratic Senators Kristen Gillibrand and Cory Booker.Read the rest from Ed Morrissey HERE.

Oh, mom. I find this idea pretty weird. If we have guaranteed places, it can "protect" us from something we really want to do. Guaranteed job is not equal to beloved job. When I only planed my first work, I had to go to work to the company I didn't want to work with, but it was kind of compulsory work from my uni. Sooo.. It was guaranteed, it could be my back up plan, but I wanted something I would love to do. So that's why I checked all the possible sources and chose ResumesPlanet to write my resume. I had no experience, but my employer saw the sparkles in my eyes, so I got my perfect job and even after 6 years I still think it's perfect.
