After only a few decades, history shows that these “jobs” will degenerate into starving people sifting through human feces with their fingers, looking for corn kernels to eat for survival...
Great idea, Democrats.

Guaranteed wage for all, impeach Trump, and raise taxes - sounds like a winning platform to me!

starving people sifting through human feces with their fingers, looking for corn kernels to eat for survival... Useless eaters devolving into useless re-eaters. Not a pretty picture.

Record low unemployment. Don’t they realize that their voters would rather have their free handouts than a job?
Hope they keep this up for the election.

I always preferred to hang out with these people. It was a lot easier to get laid.

So no more welfare or unemployment system or payments? No more welfare healthcare? No more free phones? No more buracracy to administrate such programs? No more EBT cards?
The gimmedats are going to get it.

In other words the Democrats want to put the entire country into an expanded version of Job Corps. Get your shovels ready folks!

Question: If you are chronically unproductive on your guaranteed job, or show up late, or miss work, can you be fired?
If so, what happens to you then? Does the government simply invent another guaranteed job for you?

What the government gives, the government can take away. Why don’t these idiots get that?

This is where Bernie got it wrong.
The US has been doing this for decades.
It’s called “government.”

You don’t get something for nothing.
You can’t have freedom for free.
You won’t get wise with the sleep still in your eyes.
No matter what your dream may be.
