So, you see a statistic that there are people trying to live on a mere $20,000 per year, and your first thought is, 'wow, they must be lazy'.

You realize your bigotry and resentment isn't really the same thing as economic theory, jmfcst.

clap clap..

And you bitch because they don't get jobs. Nobody wants them, because they are too risky of an investment. So basically you are calling for genocide.

I wasn't referring to people unemployed in this recession, rather I was referring to those out of work during 2006-7....heck even in the boom of the 90's we still had ~4% unemployment when all you had to have was a pulse to get a job.  There is a segment of the population that will never be employed regardless of economic conditions.  And for those people maybe a little bit of starvation would motivate them to work when work is available.

As we move more and more into a technology based economy, you’re going to have a larger percent of this nation permanently unemployed simply because of the lack of discipline within this society that fails to set high scholastic expectations for its youth.



This is all 5ucking bullsh**t that rich elites keep pushing.    There's a reason why our country is on the economic decline and it's not the fault of these low educated/ lazy workers.   I now assume by "low educated" you mean people with high school diplomas, and not a suit case full of degrees?? When you make it so that corporations  can move their businesses overseas for cheaper labor ( which wouldn't be allowed here by law  unless you get a illegal) you get the situation many households find themselves in.   "high scholastic expectations " mean nothing if there isn't any jobs or a lack of them to start with.


 I agree most affected by this economic downturn is the low educated ( other than minorities) , but you had no problem bailing out the fat cats on wall street. Why not bailout these unemployed, lazy, low educated Americans by giving them a better education without them having to pay back anything?      Or would that be too risky of an investment ?
