SAN DIEGO, -- Thirty-three percent of U.S. women say no to dating an unemployed man, but 42 percent would consider it if the man had a plan, a survey indicated.

The survey of 925 single women by specialty dating service It's Just Lunch found 4 percent of women responded with an unreserved yes to dating an unemployed man, while another 21 percent said they would, but they wanted to know how the man was keeping occupied if not working.

"Not having a job will definitely make it harder for men to date someone they don't already know," Irene LaCota, spokeswoman for It's Just Lunch, said in a statement.

Many women said they fear there will be a financial obligation if they dated someone who is out of work, while others said they feared their activities would be constricted by an unemployed man's financial limitations.

It's not just about money, life coach and filmmaker Patricia Weaver said, it is about being with a man who is engaged in something.

"Even at my age, 75, and dating if you can believe it, if a man is not employed, volunteering, involved in life -- it's a deal breaker," Weaver said.

Vincent Turner, of San Francisco, said women are subtle when they discover a man is living off his savings.

"No one's going to say, 'I'm not going to date you because you don't have a job," Turner said. "You usually get the first date. But you don't get a lot of callbacks."

This has to be the lynch-pin of the demoKKKrat plan to reduce the world’s human population to medieval levels for the glory of Gaea, i.e. the rational for Bork Obunga to want to crash the U.S. economy: no jobs ==> no dates ==> no marriages ==> no children ==> voila, medieval population levels in a mere 50 years...
