Bulbasaur Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 Nice little radio interview with a proud welfare recipient. http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-11-30/other-america-taxpayers-are-fools-working-stupid While what little remains of America's middle class is happy and eager to put in its 9-to-5 each-and-every day, an increasing number of Americans - those record 91.5 million who are no longer part of the labor force - are perfectly happy to benefit from the ever more generous hand outs of the welfare state. Prepare yourself before listening to this...calling on her self-admitted Obamaphone, Texas welfare recipient Lucy, 32, explains why "taxpayers are the fools"... "...To all you workers out there preaching morality about those of us who live on welfare... can you really blame us? I get to sit around all day, visit my friends, smoke weed.. and we are still gonna get paid, on time every month..." She intends to stay on welfare her entire life, if possible, just like her parents (and expects her kids to do the same). As we vociferously concluded previously, the tragedy of America's welfare state is that work is punished.
In the belly of the beast Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 She has absolutely no idea how very fragile her family's situation truly is. The checks will stop coming someday soon, or will become nearly worthless through inflation.
nathanm Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 There's nothing good produced in human society unless people go to work. All the cool stuff we all need to survive and enjoy life is the result of doing work. The money part comes after, you have to physically get up and do something, anything if you want to live. This parasite only can do what she's doing because there's a surplus of wealth created by all the working people. No matter how unfulfilling you might think your job is, you are still serving yourself and your fellow man by doing it. There's no slacking and relaxation time unless there's work being performed. If you throw out work from the equation you are naked and starving in the wilderness. The caller is fundamentally aligned against reality, which is made possible by violence and intimidation, but reality will ultimately win. I don't envy her in the least. I would rather have the old jobs I hated than to live with the truth that I was a worthless shell of a human being.
