Unlike right wingers who feel contempt for these people, I feel sorry for them. Nothing scares me more than not being able to carry my own weight. Think of all the dignity and self worth a person must lose to become dependent on the system.
WRONG. These people feel nothing but satisfaction from gaming the system and getting as much free handouts from the government by doing the least amount of work. They honestly feel as if they have WON and the rest of us are stupid s we work ourselves to death AND being taxed out of our hard earned paychecks.
I see the same with slackers at my job. They think that they are so very clever for doing as little as possible but still getting paid the same as me... who is actually doing the work and doing it well. And I consider them THIEVES and I also feel sorry for them.
Which part of my opinion don't you agree with? Let's talk about it.
"Speaking as a liberal, I agree with Maine. I have seen first hand how dependent people are of the system once they get used to it. People will purposefully cut their hours at work to remain qualified for social services."..................... You make a major generalization ,does it happen ,yes,but your statment alludes to "all" people and you are wrong on that assumption.Just becuase you know one person....sorry ,no.
So Maine's politicians are expecting these people to just sit in their homes and die? Interesting strategy.
No they are expecting these people to work and pay taxes like the rest of us who are paying for those food stamps. They've become too much of a burden for the working people so it's time you pull your weight.
If they refuse to work and choose to starve that's their decision.

In my 25 years of working with people like this, I've seen that when lay off's hit, and they eventually do, who do you think the boss gives the pink slip to? Don't feel sorry for them.

The way you talk about"people like this " proves to me this bothers you becuase it hits close to home.
