In Maine (maybe elsewhere), you don’t even need a job. They offer community service or training which will qualify too. http://www.heritage.org/research/reports/2016/02/maine-food-stamp-work-requirement-cuts-non-parent-caseload-by-80-percent

In the USSR, work is a duty and a matter of honor for every able-bodied citizen, in accordance with the principle: “He who does not work, neither shall he eat.” …
How can they complain when even the Stalin constitution dared to paraphrase 2 Thessalonians 3:10?

We may as well use the phony employment statistics produced by this liberal administration to re-impose the work requirements. After all, we are nearing full employment!

Liberals have had their way long enough. Just look about at the devastation their way brought. It’s time to flip them the wee birdie, and say enough is enough.

there should be no benefits, period. Whether you work or not. Zero. Get a job, let your family take care of you or your church. Otherwise, die in the streets. The whole entitlement mentality would end in one generation.

Either churches would revive or people would be dying in heaps in the streets while shame would be on the churches.

A major trouble with doing this kind of thing through government is that it artificially sanitizes the situation as well as costing more than it ought to and glorifying an entrenched level of bureaucracy.

My sentiments as well. Cram their own phony stats down their throats.

Does that include Tricare for the military, or their retirement?

why would even liberals be against someone working for assistance?

I don’t give a @#$ if they dig holes and fill them back up all day. It makes them prove they’re not worthless lazy bums.

As my Father told me more than once when I was a whiny Teenager, “Nobody owes you a living, so shut up and get back to work”.
