Summer jobs for Arizona teens more scarce than anywhere else

    I am a teenager who is home for the summer, and I admit that it is difficult trying to get a job to help pay for my out of state college tuition. While I was interviewed for a job at a local restaurant last week, the manager said that I have a great application but he doesn't hire summer employees. However, I still disagree with the comment below, I believe that younger teens who are here illegally will benefit more from the paycheck then I would. Even though they are here illegally, they are trying to make a better life for themselves and need ways to help support their families, I don't mind working long hours during the school year if it means that summer jobs are given to those who actually need it.

    So 58% of Arizona teenagers are out of work but instead of helping them find jobs or do something to help them, Congressman Ben Quayle is joining Barack Obama and calling for residency and work permits specifically for younger illegal aliens (up to age 30)? Give me a break! How are AZ kids supposed to find jobs if illegal aliens are now allowed to stay and legally take them? Ben Quayle, you just lost my vote.
