We don't know that they made shitty life decisions. What we do know is that they were actively employed and contributing to society, but now that they aren't.

So you naturally ASSume it's THEIR fault and not corporate America and jackass politicians????

Sure, not all, but I'll bet they compose a fair percentage. I think we all know a few that fit into that category.


I've hired and fired about 100+ guys over the last 5 years. It seems the ones that work hard, still have jobs whether or not they work with me or not. Most of them have been fired or let go because they were lazy or had substance abuse problems. I don't have a problem with Unemployment insurance, what I do have a problem with are lazy people. There were alot of people, employed in industries they were completely unqualified for and were able to skate by. Now that times are lean, the fat is getting trimmed and tumors removed. In the end of the day, I pay a [censored] load of taxes for people who have made shitty life decisions, whether is be not getting enough edcuation, not keeping their legs closed, or leveraging them selves into debt beyond what they are capable of living on.
