Waiting tables, running a cash register or working 2nd shift in a manufacturing plant might not be glamorous or even interesting, but it keeps you housed & fed while you send out CVs.<BR/><BR/>How many months of work were taxed to pay for your 4 months on the dole? And, by how many taxpayers? How many people worked a 2nd job, gave up time with their families & friends to pay their bills, all the while having a chunk of it taxed away for the 3, 4, or 6 months somebody else leisurely conducts their career planning?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-1147486134996066802006-05-13T14:08:00.000+12:002006-05-13T14:08:00.000+12:00PC said:"the right to be kept alive at others’ exp...PC said:<BR/>"the right to be kept alive at others’ expense"<BR/><BR/>I was on the dole for 4 months after coming out of varsity. I agree that individuals shoud stand on their own, but in situations like mine (as many other students), seeking wellfare till you get employment is a big help. In fact a friend of mine suggested that if I had continued rejection in my job applications, then there is always a job available in K'Rd (non-taxed). I told him thanks, very much but I prefered the Wellfare handout rather than standing in K'Rd every night with a wig hitching a ride.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-1147435964604592912006-05-13T00:12:00.000+12:002006-05-13T00:12:00.000+12:00Children are rather like chattel, to the extent th...Children are rather like chattel, to the extent that their rights come through their parents, who are completely responsible for them.<BR/><BR/>The educational system seems to be the fall back for anyone who feels the need to defend govt. welfare programs. Why? It is a bottomless money pit, which fails at everything but turning out government supporting myrmidons.<BR/><BR/>Public/Government education is not a right. It is a two-fold obligation. First, to the taxpayers who pay for it, regardless of whether or not their children attend, or if they even have children. Second, to the children who are obligated to attend, regardless of the quality.<BR/><BR/>My children however, do have a "right" to an education. This right is granted by the contract my husband & I signed with a privately run school and the money we pay each year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-1147426965001092262006-05-12T21:42:00.000+12:002006-05-12T21:42:00.000+12:00Isn't it a pain in the arse having fellow citizens...Isn't it a pain in the arse having fellow citizens?
