Sheesh! If she is waiting tables, few are the places that don't provide health insurance.
So all you tax payers (suckers) better pony up.
Check this out.
I know literally dozens of such people where I live in Los Angeles. It would never occur to them to get a reasonable day job to fund their aspirations. Not when there is the government teat to suckle at.
Most people in my social circles view me as a curiousity, an eccentric for holding such views; which is shameful.
New York. I went to school with some girls like that ... they looked down on people majoring in business or engineering.
I am paying for this joke. Will someone tell her that's why they call them "starving" artists.
Why doesn't she go home to Vermont and work her ass off at her parents' restaurant? she wanted time to "work on her own projects" ? Hey, stupid, how about working on MY project---reducing my taxes---get a f...g job. and while you're at it...get a roomate or two..$600 a month rent?!
This makes me sooo mad.
This is just sickening. I cannot understand how any person with any self respect could do something like this. I don't know what is worse, these people, or the government giving them aid.
The government!
LA, too. I knew the same type who were "actresses."
Anny,
Re: your note #2. She lost her job at the diner.
Translation: fired from diner. Not too many diners have an abundance of over-qualified people knocking at their doors, begging for work. I would imagine losing a job at a diner takes incredible effort, or lack thereof. It's all a matter of perspective.
Bottom line, she is now on the dole. And it is an accepted way of life. I am up to my eyeballs and earballs with stories of these sad creatures who prey on the system, use the system, or simply count on the kindness of strangers as a way of life.
I want a free pony.
It is indeed tough to get "fired" from a diner.
I've done the "in between jobs at the folks' house" gig. It works!
I guess so because they are so willingly wasting everyones tax dollars. The people are just scum-suckers milking the system that's in place.
Yeah, but this gal likely wants to be "independent." Better to have the taxpayers paying for her rent and food than to have her earn it from her parents.
The system is really messed up, we need a few good CONSERVATIVE republicans (a dying breed?) to give us TRUE Welfare reform, Tax reform, Illegal losers reform!!
I don't think any politician has the brass to be a real conservative any more. Tancredo, or Paul are about as close as we will ever see.
