As opposed to going looking for a job.
What jobs? Obama had seen to it that the economy stays weak.
If we hit the debt ceiling there will not be any jobs to be had. That said we are going to hit it sooner or later so why not now? Bush and Obama made this mess so I'd guess it's our job to clean it up. As long has the lights stay on we can make it thru this.
A lot of those folks are unemployable.
It's extremely difficult for an unemployed indigent to find a good job, thanks to you-know-who.
As opposed to going looking for a job.
Obama has ensured there are so few jobs available that there are not nearly enough, even at minimum wages.
On the other hand, most of these people are completely unemployable for any honest job. They have lost all work ethic, work incentive, honesty, pride, and the ability to do any job except cash their "free" EBT cards and bitch about how people are taking advantage of them. Well, a lot of them are pretty good at squirting out babies, selling dope, and committing crimes of every kind. But then, that's not "honest" work.
Most of them won't even make a decent army once the music stops, the rampaging kicks in, and they finish burning down their neighborhoods. They'll just become roving angry mobs and cannon fodder for their masters to expend against the real America.
The most dangerous ones are the street gangs and ex-jailbirds. This is a huge group and they can get really ugly, really fast. Murder and mayhem are ways of life to them. They are good at it, are used to organization, and are ruthless as hell. They'll be more than happy to rape, steal, torture, and murder whomever and whenever they feel like it. This will be the real army. They will be a genuine threat to those outside their own community.
Get bullets and beans now, folks. Then get as far away from the urban feral centers as soon as you possibly can when the "free" money stops. They will quickly look like something like the Liberian Civil War.
In other words, have a plan. The 0bama organization does.
“As opposed to going looking for a job”
One problem: Most of our jobs have already been exported.
