Free money! WTF!
---
I cant believe i just got into an argument with someone over working and free money! The conversation was initially about the notion of free money! If 48% of the country is off handouts in one way or another( section 8, food stamps , general assistance)
Then why not just cut the red tape and just give everyone free money every month for doing nothing. Thats the argument that im dealt!
I was like what!!? You mean sit on your ass all day long without contributing to society in any anyway and get paid for it.. and take advantage of everyone else who works and pays taxes?? YEP!! Replied the arguee..
Man that would be aiding and abetting losers into a life of loserness! Im not talking about people who actually need assistance .. im talking about those who "choose" to life a life of dependance on purpose. People who are in your face like ---->>> "fuck you im gonna keep playing the system like its my job"!!
Its pisses me off that someone can work 20 years to save and own a home and the next door neighbor will have lived there for 10-15 years off section 8 paying about $140 a month for a home thats identical! A home you have to work 8-10 hours a day, 6 days a week for to support you and your familiy.
As if i wasnt already irritated the conversation got sidetracked and the subject was working! The arguer was now saying thats its not uncommon in some society's that people dont work!
I was like what?! what kinda of nonsense is that! Where ever the **** your at you gotta pay for food, rent clothing, transportation at the minimum!!!?? I was like what are you talking about?
Then the arguer says.. "In the Uk there are lots of immigrants that come into the country and dont work and they are given shelter and assistance." The arguer spoke as if every single immigrant in the UK did not work and just is basically sucking the life out the land and its ok! << --- wtf!
Why is it hard to understand the process of working and getting a reward for working hard and the harder you work the bigger the reward! Regardless if your work is physical or not. This hand out bullshit is just nuts! Someone was telling me about someone they know who is getting a disability check for being an alcoholic..
I was like what!!! Evidently he convinced some board that 30 years of drinking and being a loser should equate to receiving free money and being disabled while everyone else who works, pays that guys way!!!!
What a bunch of bs! Im not critical of people who need assistance at all ... we all need help sometimes in one way or another and we all have our strengths a weaknesses but i think everyone can contribute! We are all in the same boat! It benefits everyone to be a halfway decent member of society no matter what you do!
Why does it feel like we are living in the movie "idiocracy"!
For those who have seen it ... ( UPGRADE IS NOT COMING!!! )
