Cease to be idle or is it stop subsidizing freeloaders
That was one of the lines from the CES fireside given by Elder Dallin H Oaks at the Interstake Center in Oakland back in 2005: "Stop subsidizing freeloaders." He was talking to the young adult women in the Church to lock their pantries and only open them up for REAL dates, not just hanging out with guys. Well, I think we can apply it to many MANY other people. On one of the local talk radio stations this morning the hosts had people call in who are receiving unemployment. The hosts asked if the callers would be willing to accept a job that paid less than the amount they received from unemployment. The answer? Can you guess? Is it that hard to guess? Nope, it's a no brainer. The callers said "No". They would continue receiving unemployment despite the fact that they could get a legitimate job. How sad. How ridiculous. I think the taxpayers need to stand up and say, get off the government's dole! Get a job. We need to stop paying people to sit at home and not be productive when there are jobs available. Sacramento, Washington STOP SUBSIDIZING FREELOADERS!!!
