These attitudes will become the norm in the U.S. as government programs bloat and more and more people lose their jobs. Heck, I’m on disability right now and would like to go back to work, but I increasingly keep thinking why bother? The taxes alone will make a return to work so not worth it. Might as well stay on the dole so to speak.
The only bad guys in this story, are the ones not mentioned: the bozos who voted for the crooks.
This is how it starts. It is really, really hard to be starting out on a low paid job. The system is meant to prevent people from being in want, but what some bureaucrat who doesnt live in the real world doesnt understand is that there are many, many low-paid workers who are already at or below the levels they think are “livable”.
