But there are also many who want to work, who simply have NO work to be found at all.
This is what the policies of the past quarter century have brought us to. Record unemployment bringing too many onto the public dole. Nobody can tell me that this was unintentional.
Hoping and praying that things will be changing soon.
There is simply no excuse for people to suck off the national teat simply because they aren't finding the job they used to do or one that "pays as much as welfare" or as they used to make, to sit on their asses!
If there were no welfare, Section 8 housing chits, food cards and "healthcare" people would soon enough find work to do.
The facts are that the "joblessness" isn't as bad as one would think and we'd soon see a lot less men hanging out at the mall, home improvement stores and shopping at the tech stores, kids in tow, if there weren't the benefits to support them!
A reason to like these work demands a lot is that it will cut down on those leeching off the system. People working under the table, thus not claiming income, often get food stamp benefits. Many are going to choose to forgo food stamps rather than have to replace what they're doing with a job that's taxed. Another source of abuse is people who don't actually reside where they're making claims.
What makes no sense is welfare becoming handouts with no obligation to earn it in some way. Meanwhile, idiot liberals do free charity work while people sitting on their arses could be doing things for their own communities.
JMHO
There were no jobs; there now are jobs. I understand how hard it is to have been unemployed for 3 of 5 or even 8 years, having gone through the interview process, thinking that THIS time there will be a job, and it turns out that they weren’t really hiring at all, just going through the motions.
This change is coming at the right time. There are jobs available; sure, not the best jobs, but jobs which have fair hours and pay. It’s time we put America back to work, rather than waiting for that EBT card to reload.
