Germany is just reaping what they sowed.
What about “workfare” instead of welfare?
I know the concept of workfare, or having able bodied people work in exchange for public assistance has been talked about for decades. Isnt this just another form of the concept of requiring people getting the public dole to do something rather than sit around all day?
Socialist demanding that the unemployed shall work for a living. I thought that was the exact opposite of what the socialist wanted.
“3,000 long-term unemployed people will have to work for the common and the corporate good! Hourly pay: Zero cents!”
And our Beloved (by most!) Governor, Scott Walker (R, WI) is taking flack for wanting to drug test able-bodied, CHILDLESS people on Food Stamps and Assistance, in order for them to keep those ‘benefits’ at Taxpayer Expense! Jobs are going unfilled in our state! Our unemployment rate is 3.1%!
People should be working for a living, not letting the rest of us support them; and we really have little problem with illegals in our state outside of Madistan and Milwaukeestan.
Good Luck, Lady - you’re going to need it. Your country is truly beyond repair. :(
Well there you have it
persons who are able to work should not be just given taxpayer money or benefits. they should (at least after a reasonable time to enable them to seek private sector employment).....they should be offered pay and benefits for doing some useful work. This work can be any decent tasks that the individual is reasonably capable of performing.
anything from cleaning up parks and roads and beaches to helping maintain public facilities to assisting with office work to whatever needs doing. Just raking up leaves if that’s all that is needed in their community, okay on that. Whatever productive tasks they can reasonably do. It can be part-time if that’s all that’s needed or that’s all they can do, and I am not trying to enslave anybody, that should not be allowed period. ...... The point being, people who are capable of doing something useful for others... should not be forced into the indignity of just taking and taking for nothing (nor should they be permitted to operate that way).
It is demeaning and dysfunctional for them and for society.

What happened to the $15 per hour minimum wage?
I’ll bet they still get their welfare goodies, in which case, strictly speaking, they aren’t working for “free”. I think all welfare should be “workfare”. No more free s*** for layabouts.
If not, what are they going to do when the “slaves” refuse to work? Beat them with bullwhips?
Interesting. Thanks for posting.
After two trips to Germany I concluded its an effed up place. This reinforces my observation.
