Get rid of Welfare and Unemployment benefits, and you’ll be surprised how motivated people will suddenly get.

Welfare and other benefits such as Medicaid for healthy young people have made it more lucrative and a wage any startup can afford to pay. You are so right.

So you’re saying, if Obamacare causes a guy to lose his job, he shouldn’t get unemployment benefits?

Wouldn’t a better solution be to help create a better environment for people to start businesses of their own? I mean, look at eBay. People are trying to sell stuff on eBay, but our lawmakers want to make them collect sales tax from their customers. Even mail-order companies can’t collect sales tax from any state unless the company has a brick-and-mortar presence in that state. Yet our politicians want to go after the little guys trying to make good.

Instead of judging others, walk a mile in their shoes. It’s not so easy to pull yourself up by your bootstraps, if the taxman has taken the bootstraps from you.
