Why Do We Pay Folks Not To Work?

What other nation pays their citizens to do nothing and promote that same behavior by feeding the trolls?
How much money does the tax paying working class citizen piss away for people that refuse to contribute?
Where is the tipping point of this continued lunacy?

I think it's funny that you use the word "folks"

They're not being paid not to work - they're being paid to vote Democrat.

Do you know the requirements for welfare / unemployment?

Fun fact - In Alabama, when you apply for food stamps, the packet that you are to complete includes a voter registration, this started in 2008. I'm not sure if other states requires this. Also in 2008 the application process eliminated verification of employment/income status. Also family assistance did away with the jobs program. That being said they have made it easir for people to qualify/lie without the hassle or responsibility to use the system for a temporary time, or motivation to better your situation.

Spike lee also likes to often capitalize every word he writes when posting something. I think it makes him feel like what he is saying is important.

To keep them involved in the economy.
It's all about consumerism.

Do you also realize that we pay farmers not to farm?
quote:
When last year’s drought drove corn prices to record highs, farmers with “harvest price option” policies were paid those inflated prices for what didn’t grow -- contributing to a record bill for taxpayers and record income for farmers. “There is no social justification for these subsidies,” says Smith. “This is a program that’s fundamentally designed to give money to farmers.”
