    There’s millions of adults in the USA that are unemployed. Some are looking for a job, and others won’t even try to get a job.

    The lazy folks need your help, so make sure you get out of bed and get to work, okay? Work really hard and do some extra hours if you can. That way, you’ll provide extra tax revenue for government welfare programs.

    I guess filling out job applications and going on interviews would emotionally traumatize these folks. So its up to us—the employed—to provide them with enough money to stay in their comfort zones. We must rescue them!

    When I’m waiting at the bus stop, on my way to work, I often see a group of people standing outside of a general store. They sit around for hours talking to each other. Occasionally they will beg for money. They are able-bodied and could work if they wanted to. Minimum wage is going to be $11 an hour in California very soon. They could earn a decent paycheck if they worked full time instead of just doing nothing all day.

    This is why I don’t donate to charities any more.

    After Harvey and Irma I briefly entertained the idea of donating a little money to the Red Cross. In years past I have donated to disaster relief.

    Then, F~~~ that, showed up.
    1. I already gave, I pay taxes.
    2. Smart people that weren’t prepared booked ass.
    5. Smart people that were prepared were fine.
    6. With life an limb on the line people were out stealing f~~~ing shoes.

    Perfect perfect summary.
    Both sides should use this post as their official position.

    The welfare queens I know, baited by class envy, are the loudest critics of tax reform, because the working wealthy “should pay their fair share.” But here’s the kicker–the welfare surfers are precisely the group that do not pay their fair share. How much does running this country cost per citizen? They need to be required to anty up. A businessman paying 100k in yearly income tax is surely paying more than his fair share.

    I pay 50%. That is six months out of every year, to support several of these families so they can waste their money on consumable extras like cable and phone subscriptions, stuff I can’t even afford. One welfare mom I know who also draws unemployment collects bicycles. Not an inexpensive hobby.

    If you take from the system, you should have to pay for it. If not with money, then suspended voting rights. Also if the bar were dropped on quality of handouts so that only government rice were available to those truly dying.

    I work the bare minimum. Just enough to live on. I used to pay more taxes than what my current income is at this time. It’s far better this way. No, I’m not by any means lazy. I just simply got tired of paying for everybody else’s things. If everybody did what I am doing this whole system would collapse. It would make any collapse we have seen before look like paradise. Trust me. The only regret I have is I didn’t walk away sooner.

    There’s millions of adults in the USA that are unemployed. Some are looking for a job, and others won’t even try to get a job.

    Here are some figures to think about.

    The population of the U.S. is around 323 million people: https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/US/PST045216

    Of those, 94 million working age adults (18 to 65) are out of work: http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/10/02/record-94610000-americans-not-labor-force/

    Another 97 million working age adults are living paycheck to paycheck: http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-09-13/97-million-american-workers-are-living-paycheck-paycheck

    Factoring in that roughly 22% of American population are under the age of 18. (See census link above.) That roughly 70 million people.

    And over 15% of the American population are over the age of 65. (See census link above.) That is roughly 50 million people.

    All these figures together are 311 million people, roughly 96% of the population are either to young, to old, not working, or barely holding on.

    That leaves the other 12 million, roughly 4% of the nation whom are sitting pretty while screwed everyone else is being screwed over. This 12 million likely includes those with state or federal government jobs (local government jobs vary wildly on annual salaries from a few dollars to hundreds of thousands of dollars a year), law enforcement jobs, military jobs, or executive jobs.

    Meanwhile everyone else of the 96% are screwed over.

    Anyone that believes that this can continue for much longer is being foolish.

    I have read counting bailouts and covering derivatives to the global banks, the amount of electronic printed U.S. currency is somewhere between 500 to 700 trillion U.S. dollars. That is eight to ten times the total estimated wealth of the world (around $70 trillion in U.S. dollars).

    I wonder how these people are getting by. I assume that most of them live in a household with a working adult paying the bills. Maybe others are living off of alimony/child support payments. And others could be getting government aid.

    What about the rest? They might get by with odd jobs (not reported to the IRS), begging, or crime (stealing, selling illegal drugs, prostitution).

    Those are good points.

    I took my figures further. Of the 4% of the U.S. population whom are successful, likely around half are women. Of the 2% of men whom are successful, likely most of them were born into wealth.

    So, this means that the rest of the men not born into wealth have a less than 1% chance of being successful, proving that achieving the “American Dream” is bulls~~~.
