The worst thing about this article is the premise - the unemployement rate = lazy rate. Sounds like a young punk or a rich kid that’s never been unemployed before. Boy, those feelings will change in time!
Unemployed = lazy. Is there anything more bigoted?!
Like saying “pregnant” = contraception failure.
“the unemployment rate = lazy rate”
That is of course not always the case as I have been unemployed about 9 months in the last 30 years.
As long as a behavior is rewarded you will have more of it.
If all the unemployed got NO gubmint checks how long do you think they would stay that way?
