Maybe you should answer with something more than wanting money, because literally everyone who wants a job also wants the money that comes along with it

You're not going to leave an impression if you're going to dismiss questions as bullstuff then wondering why they won't hire you

"generally oblivious" isn't a very good thing when you're trying to rep yourself up

I'm sorry I can't lie? I guess?

I feel like it's a good thing for them to know. I forgot I also say I can be forgetful

jobs go to those shamelessly willing to lie on their job application

"What are your weaknesses?" Not good with eye contact and am generally oblivious

"Do you have any previous job experience?" No

"Why should I hire you?" I'm going into college and I could use the money

That fast post.

Your second answer is adequate, but could use improvement, like say what you've done comparable instead. For weaknesses, you need something that a) doesn't affect your job performance, and b) can be spun into a strength.
The third answer should be something you can provide others can't, most likely an elaboration on strengths and that experience you've had, or at the very least say something that indicates a desire to work for them specifically.
