Old head, I disagree with you the more you post. Bring 2000 unemployed people to the Midwest and I'll find them a job where than can be able to pay their mandatory expenses and save a little. Then if they had ambition they might take a part time job on the side to save a little more, and WORK there way up. (Why are they owed anything?). The answer that is almost always heard is. "I don't want to work there!" A, given the position your unemployed ass is in, your wants to go the bottom of the priority list kid. The difference between the last few generations isn't the top half its the bottom half. My folks had little money and somehow all of my brothers and sisters made it on there own, because of work ethic. We all shared cars growing up, if we had one to share, we all at times had to make our own ham sandwich or PB&J and we all found jobs, no matter what it was. Detasseling was a family summer job. Fuk those who say I can't start there I have a college education. A, so where should you be entitled to start at entitled one? That's another problem that talk like everyone should respect there whiny lazy asses, rather than make people earn respect. You are full of it if you don't think I could find 2000 people a job in the Midwest in a month. Now with that being said, if you come with a criminal record that makes it a tad bit tougher, or a laundry list of jobs you have been fired from, but rather come with a work ethic that I'm going to start wherever and work my ass off to move up. Personally I think all govt aid should be public record so the freeloaders can/could get called out and lose the aid of they are able to work. Yep tough love on the freeloaders is mandatory, cause what Obama is doing is just making more entitled and softer.
