    That mentality does not only exist in that burger flipping market. In fact, I've never met a single person who didn't feel they are worth more than they are paid.

    Sounds cruel, but what's that saying about giving a man a fish vs a fishing pole?
    Dem policies over the past 8 years were intentionally focused on making as many people as possible dependent on the government (Cloward - Piven Strategy).
    Combined with the rise in dope smoking and opiat addictions, the number of eligible workers has drastically declined.

    Aren't unemployment benefits paid out of an unemployment insurance pool paid into by workers while employed?

    In order to get and retain them, isn't it necessary that one prove they are actively seeking employment?

    Default Our very own Ken Buck is doing his part to MAGA with a new visa program!

    My experience has been that lower demographic Americans and are entitled and lazy. They don't have near the work ethic of the incoming visa holders. I wish it was different, but it's the reality and the hard work still needs to be done. Take away all the financial assistance opportunities and let them fall flat.

    The EMPLOYER pays into the pool and if an employee ever files a claim and is granted benefits the EMPLOYER'S rate goes up. I have even had employees that had there own businesses on the side that I fired collecting unemployment. If they have to prove anything it's just that they put in an application. Nobody, however, will every hire them because of their lack of interest in getting a job.

    I have an employee who is a naturalized citizen that has a better work ethic then almost anyone that has every work for me. He does everything that is asked of him and never complains about his situation in life or work.

    This is the end result of changing the way they calculate unemployment to make Obama look good.

    By not counting those that have "given up" they make it look like unemployment is much lower than it is, and they use that low figure to justify bringing in more foreign labor. The truth is they want Americans unemployed, poor, suffering and dependent on the state so that 1) they'll vote for more largess from mama government, thus giving her more power and 2) they'll have a pretext to import more third worlders that are lower IQ and thus more controllable and also more likely to vote for big government leftists.

    I very much doubt that IQ plays a role when comparing Americans out of work and on the dole to people not from America.

    Then you would be very wrong. When you look at average IQs from other countries you'll see that most are below the US ... and keep in mind that Trump was right when he said these other countries are "not sending us their best".

    https://iq-research.info/en/page/average-iq-by-country

    Keep in mind that the sweet spot for violence is around average 85 (and this doesn't take into account MAOA-L and CDH13 genes, which are more common in Latin American, West Asian and North African gene pools ... and lets not even get into the issue of inbreeding going on in all three places pushing IQ's even lower).

    People from low IQ populations when transplanted into higher IQ populations are set up for failure worse than an inner city ghettto kid dropped into an Ivy League college. When these people inevitably fail they will do two things 1) demand more largess from the state and 2) start raping, robbing and murdering (look at the situation in Europe with "refugees").
