We're paying for it, why should these lazy lowlifes eat steak and lobster on our dime? Let those motherfuckers eat gruel and chicken nuggets only.

the day i found out that i had to have a pregnant chick 19 or under living in the household or i had to have a dependent or two with a 35hr/week job = what the fuck? i wanted to have a little extra motivation to wake up and "get right" while bumping first of the month every morning with my patented shit-eating grin like "this is on boilermaker rick's tab"

they'll become obese and cost taxpayers significantly more money in medical expenses if they were to eat gruel and chicken nuggets.

If the government gets to tell you who to make a cake for, then it makes sense that they can tell you what you can't eat.

Why are you concerned, Seacrest? Nobody wants to eat your gluten-free cakes anyway.

Did I sound concerned, because I didn't mean to.

More gluten free for me.

Help me understand how, at least in the state of Wisconsin, people can refuse hours and then turn around and file for unemployment, claiming they are not getting enough hours????

I think there are definitely people who abuse welfare programs and that should be addressed.


But the amount of blame (for all economic woes) many put on people on govt assistance (the poor) is disproportionate, imo. Many times these same people are against raising the minimum wage. (which would save millions in govt assistance to low income workers)


Its demonization of the poor.

I would turn the question around and ask how an employer can reduce hours and then expect the employee to keep smiling and coming in to get half a paycheck.

It's a meme for the same side. Kelly draws for the Onion as a send up of conservative cartoonists.

Oh, sorry. Guess I got onioned on that one. Its very realistic.

If you worked harder you might have a boat that you could park in another boat.
