    Exactly. I know some people at my work that have been on benefits, and they're dead weight and more harm to the company (wasted resources, customer-service liabilities) than they bring in profit. If I had a say, I'd prioritize getting rid of them while avoiding them being able to file an unemployment claim against us.

    Pretty happy here working to keep jobs local. Not a bad place to visit, though.

    It's even more ridiculous when you go onto Craig's list and see people selling their food stamps for more cash.

    Good for them, until their parents die (and that generation in general kicks the bucket) and there's no one to pay the bills and no one with the human capital to create the jobs and England becomes a 3rd world shithole. Its sad that there's a chance my generation will be the one jumping fences to get into another country for economic opportunity because folks like this brought the system down...

    No wonder they legalized marijuana in Colorado. Helps pass all that free time waiting for the gubment cheese to show up.

    I read a piece not too long ago that spoke about how people on Welfare and food stamps here in CO make more than any entry level position for someone without prior experience or education can make... That's half the problem right there- the other half is that absent work ethic.

    By entry level, do you mean full time minimum wage, or some other rate? I'm curious what entry level would be. I work for a pretty big company, and entry level here for a EE isn't typical.

    Me too! But no, instead I pay almost as much in taxes a year than those wankers/tossers probably get from the gubbin'ment.
