Sorry, disagree.I agree with most of this. The bunch of lazy fucks is smaller than it is made out to be IMO. I think the working poor make up a far bigger number. Those people put in their 40 per week and are miserable for the most part. It isn't right.
The work ethic and value system in this country has deteriorated in the past 20-30 years.
There were shit jobs back then too, but fewer. Now there are more, yet fewer people to fill them, mainly because people don't want to work for it if they can get it from the government.
It is almost 1:1 now between those who are receiving assistance versus those that are achieving 40 FT equivalents.
There is not much difference between a minimum wage job and getting welfare, in fact it is better in some cases because the economic impact of actually paying out of pocket for skyrocketing food prices is minimized.
Main reasons being the drastic shrinking of the value of wages due to horrific government and the debt-based central bank.
If the dollar actually had real value anymore, you would see a drastic difference.
