I totally understand with what you are saying. I am not against someone to use the benefits that they paid into as I did for 8 weeks. Just as long as they are out looking for work and not using the system as an income source and exploiting the system.
It seems to be a trend for people to have their hand out and almost expect to be taken care of. Even when there are plentiful jobs out there, maybe not what they did or even maybe they are “over qualified” for that farm job or McDonalds job but it would get them off of the free handouts and back to being productive for the economy and not a drag on the economy.
Just saying!
I agree with you.
I think a good many people have run out of “benefits” and for whatever reason they haven’t found work.
Some are dispirited. Others “over qualified” (45 and older), etc.
It’s like this; try getting getting a job at Google. Chances are if you are under 35 you stand at least a chance. If you are 40+, fat chance.
I’m not employable. Got my own businesses and hated every boss I ever had, save two.
