Whilst i agree with this sentiment in some ways is this not exactly the same **** you lay at right wingers who think people are lazy and not helping themselves except to benefits?
Not really. I believe in a fair days work for a fair days pay, that’s socialism in my book. No fit able bodied person should expect a free ride, but every working person should be entitled to a decent reward for their labour. Edit; I believe benefits should be available to those who, for whatever reason, are unable to work. But a life on the dole is no life at all imo, and not something I would ever want to encourage.
Rots the soul mate. Might be alright for a few months, any more than that and I think most people would go a bit bonkers.
I ain't been on the dole in the true sense. When i came back to England they wouldn't give me a penny...So had to find a job sharpish...
Absolutely. I know a few guys who have recently retired and some of them hate it as they don't know what to do with themselves!
