Why do people work blue collar jobs and struggle to get by. Seems dumb to me. They should just get a better job.

Blue collar jobs often provide secure employment, even if the wages are low, and may provide benefits such as health insurance. People who work these jobs may not be trained for other types of employment and/or may lack the credentials for other types of jobs, such as those that require college or university degrees. Furthermore, blue collar jobs often provide an opportunity to gain skills that may be transferable to other industries and more highly skilled work. It can be difficult to 'just get a better job' without the right training, education and credentials.
