Try lowering your std of living a little bit. People elsewhere are already in lower std of living conditions (ask someone in Africa or better still, in India)
Understand that a higher degree does not *imply* a job.
Accept the fact that its easier to change yourself than the job market. Then change yourself.
Maybe someone is not doing a better job than you in the absolute sense, but they are giving better value for money. (I wonder which advanced degree you studied without realising the cost/quality tradeoff). There is a reason why most people prefer F250 over mercedes.
Try working at WalMart. Who knows, you may find more who think like you.
That's not my fault. I did the best I could to get out of poverty, given the information I had at the time.
Why do think that you are entitled to a job because you thought that getting a better education would get you a better job.
That was unfortunately proven wrong in your case. I can understand the frustration but not the arrogance when you assume that better education must fetch you a job. Sometimes it just doesnt work that way, and even then you need to keep adapting to meet the challenge. Unfortunately more people in our country are complaining about outsourcing than trying harder to get those jobs back by adding value to the work. Think about it: You are losing your job to someone who is at this moment is giving more value for money than you would. Beat him at that and the job is yours. It may not be that simple but atleast its thinking in the right direction. Oh but you wouldnt understand this as you weren't forced to work hard enough.

"But I was told, 'Daniel, it is against the law for you to work here. You can come here on vacation, but you can't work here.'"
You call that a 'reference'?
When someone says "not to look down", do you always interpret it as "look up"?
I guess _your_ response would be yes, and so is mine to your:
"Wal-Mart greeter is looking like the right career move right now."
