Temporary jobs are better then no jobs. I'm pretty sure anyone wants to earn an income for a few years rather then earn nothing.
this is not what a government should be valuing. Short term gains shouldn't be prioritized when it results in long term harms not only to the economy but also the environment. If you rely on short term employment like this, you're going to repeat situations that have happened countless times - once the employer goes away so does the money, and the economy of a city is severely hurt.
Fact of the matter is we can't build renewables fast enough to solve a looming problem. I agree fracking is a temporary solution but it's the best we can manage at the moment.
Or we could just not frack, and focus our resources on renewable energy sources rather than on short term gains for long term harms. That is totally an option lol fracking does not have to hold us hostage.
So ignoring all the job experience a person can get from this that may lead him into a permanent job.
Yeah, it's a skill set that might help but that is in noooo way outweighed by the harms posed to every other part of the UK and the rest of the world.
I doubt these jobs are going to be aimed at the future doctors or scientists. These jobs will go for the people who have been unemployed for a decade.
This sounds 100% made up, and it pretty much is lol. You need extensive certification as far as I know. They don't just put up a help wanted sign and let whoever shows up work???
Your analogy is mixed up first your complaining that it's a short term thing then suggestions that you're going to be working in the same job for 20 years.
Reading comprehension is hard amirite. He's saying, even though you get short term benefits, there are long term harms either way. In the example, in 20 years the kid is still working a minimum wage job, in the fracking situation, the skill set you've worked up is non-transferable and there are no jobs available. It works lmao
Also if doing your job earns you a bad back then you or them are doing something wrong.
LMAO.... DUDE.... why are you commenting on blue collar work when this comment alone shows you don't know wtf you're saying
Like I said it is a temporary quick fix it will take a chunk out of the massive enemployed userbase.
WE DON'T WANT THIS!!! FOCUS RESOURCES TO EDUCATION/RENEWABLE RESOURCES INSTEAD OF SHORT TERM SOLUTIONS PLZ
