Aiming at the problem of low income of college students

"Fresh graduates who are unemployed after 1 this September can apply for unemployment registration at the labor and social security department where they are registered. For graduates who are unable to find employment and have difficulties in life in the short term, the civil affairs department will also provide minimum living security." This is the requirement in the Notice on Doing a Good Job in the Employment of College Graduates in 2006, which was jointly issued by the Central Organization Department, Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China, the Office of the Central Organizing Committee, the Ministry of Education and other China 14 departments on June 1 day. Earlier, on May 22 this year, the head of the Higher Education Department of the Ministry of Education of China said in an interview with a central media that "college students should be positioned as ordinary workers" and "they can no longer call themselves social elites". At the same time, a labor expert also said in an interview with the media that college students have become "bottom employees" to a certain extent. The government and experts agree that college students are "ordinary workers", and it is not difficult for the government to issue "minimum living allowance" to college students now. Since September, unemployed college students can apply for the employment of children with special allowances and return to the market standard. [detailed]

Seeing this news, the first reflection is that the state has finally made relevant regulations on job application after recognizing college students as "ordinary workers". According to the regulations in this news, as long as college students can't find a job after graduation, they can go to the relevant state departments to register for unemployment and receive the minimum living allowance. Come to think of it, this rule is consistent with a joke circulating in the university. Everyone thinks that "graduating from college is unemployment", and now it is finally given, but the state has given us the "enjoyment" of unemployment minimum living allowance. In other words, for other social workers, only when they are unemployed can they enjoy the treatment of minimum living security, but it is different for college students. You can enjoy the treatment of "unemployment" in one step without "employment". This shows that the state takes special care of our college students.

Some time ago, when the relevant state departments stated for the first time that "college students are ordinary workers", there was an immediate wave of public opinion in the society. Some people applaud, because they think that the country has finally combined the current employment situation of college students with the current status of "ordinary workers", which can encourage college students to start from the grassroots level in a down-to-earth manner. There are also many people who pat bricks for obvious reasons, because they think that college students receive college education and junior high school education, and every family's intellectual investment can reach the point of "losing everything." Some leaders of the Ministry of Education also admit that the burden of cultivating a family of college students is really heavy now. Under this reasoning, it is the "ordinary workers" who have spent huge financial and material resources. Then what kind of college students should we train to become "ordinary workers" directly?

If people used to think that the country's positioning of college students was "ordinary workers" or biased, then now the country has further introduced relevant policies, so that these college students who admit that they are "ordinary workers" can receive the minimum living guarantee as long as they can't find a job after graduation, or at least they will "starve" even if they can't find a decent job just after graduation. But let's think about it further. Can we "moonlight clan", who are both mobile phones and computers on university campuses, enjoy the minimum living guarantee for unemployment that is generally standard in society?

We know that according to the Regulations on Minimum Living Security for Urban Residents stipulated by the state, the relevant state and local departments should identify the qualifications of residents who apply for minimum living security for unemployment. "When examining and approving the minimum living allowance for urban residents, the administrative examination and approval authority can investigate and verify the applicant's family economic status and actual living standard through household surveys, neighborhood visits and correspondence." According to the Regulation on Minimum Living Security for Urban Residents, will the old lady in the neighborhood review our qualifications when our college students receive the unemployment minimum living security? How to check? If some college students have mobile phones and computers, they just can't find a job. Can you still get the minimum living allowance in this case? If some college students have a good family life, but can't find a job after graduation, can they receive subsistence allowances?

According to the newly promulgated regulations, college students can receive the minimum living allowance for unemployment as long as they can't find a job before September 1. However, it can be seen from the current system of enjoying subsistence allowances in the country that the qualifications for enjoying subsistence allowances are strict, because the country does not want subsistence allowances to become a hotbed for cultivating lazy people in society. Comparing the two regulations, we can see that there are still many "contradictory" provisions for unemployed college students to receive unemployment subsistence allowances. It is conceivable that it is difficult for them to prove that they are eligible for unemployment subsistence allowances.

When this regulation was first introduced, although there were "naysayers" in the society, the overall situation was "excellent". "College students, you know, the future is bright and the road is tortuous; The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is cruel; Employment is difficult, and money is necessary; Self-esteem is needed, and life goes on. A thousand words can be summed up in one sentence: unemployed college students can't get their wages, so let's get the minimum living allowance! ! ! "Unemployed college students can't get paid, so let's get the minimum living allowance! ! ! The employment situation of college students in China is grim, and the hand of the government has begun to change from "lifting" to "supporting". College students in China have also stood up from the chairs of "social elites" and returned to the tide of talent allocation in the market economy. Unemployed college students can apply for low-income employment and return to the market standard. Unemployed college students who suffer setbacks in job hunting will be in a period of psychological fragility, which will make them even more embarrassed to accept the "family survey". "On the contrary, even if they can enjoy the minimum living allowance under certain preferential conditions, they are labeled as' poor people' in this respect, which may be an obstacle to their future development subjectively or objectively." It is a misunderstanding that unemployed college students are included in the minimum living allowance.

All the above statements, no matter how discussed, are based on the premise that college students can receive unemployment subsistence allowances. It is reasonable for everyone to worry about whether college students will be discriminated against in dignity when receiving unemployment subsistence allowances. But the problem now is that there are no mistakes in many laws and regulations in China, and the original intention of the state to formulate laws is good, but the problem is that there are problems in specific operations. At present, the same is true of the minimum living guarantee for college students. The state has a good desire to "help" college students find jobs, but when college students really receive the minimum living security for unemployment, they will encounter "obstruction" from the "relevant regulations" of local governments, but no one knows.

Today's generation of college students can't be said to have caught up with the good times, or have they met the "frost period" of society to universities? When senior students can find a good job after graduation, they can also enjoy the glory of "favored by heaven" psychologically; Nowadays, when college students can't find a job after graduation and are defined as "ordinary workers" by the state, they give up the so-called "dignity" and receive the "unemployment subsistence allowance" taken care of by the state, and they are still worried about whether they can get this "welfare" from the state. At the same time, today's college students are not only unable to find jobs, but also ridiculed by some so-called "favored children" who have caught up with the national planned economic policy before, and at the same time, they have to "enjoy" the special "treatment" of social demonization. Perhaps this is the embarrassment of contemporary college students!
