And you assume that jobs are infinite/these "work requirements" actually do something useful.Mommy, I'm hungry.
Tough shit kid. I ain't gettin' no job!
If you bothered to read the article, the program only applies to abled bodied adults with no children.
Well let me tell you, I'm a truck driver and this year alone, we need over 60,000 new drivers that industry can't find. When I go to industrial areas, I see countless sign after sign on companies that are looking for help. Go back three weeks later, the signs are still posted.
So the question is are these programs there for the truly indigent, or are people using them as an option to working?
Ray is absolutely right. There are all kinds of truck driving jobs available all over the United States. Even people in rural areas can drive for the big national companies. These are really good paying jobs too. I have some nephews who have been driving for years and they have moved around wherever they wanted to and gotten new jobs wherever they moved to. They make doggone good money too.
It's just like going into the military to get a trade or college education. Just too many young people do not want to do any little thing for themselves. They simply cannot abide the though of joining the military or driving a truck and being away from home a few days. Poor damn dependency syndrome.
