Case and point. In high contradiction.
Item 1. The age discrimination law.
2. The disabilities act (no discrimination)
3. If a person can not afford to retire independently from collecting welfare (other than earned, by age, social security) and/or there own bad planning in their giuven financial situation, most are and will be working until they die.
There are approx. 50 MILLION welfare recipients receiving welfare bennies.
With the three items above and more facts to fully consider, they should all be expected to work as well, employed in some sort of accommodating status, to hold their own better financially. To at least, partially, at worst, allieve the tax burden of the welfare being provided.
The government knows this. And to think otherwise is simply scapegoating out of the 50 MILLION welfare recipients to be added to the unemployment rolls in this country.
Unless, of course, they are totally paraplegic/paralized from the neck down or something of the sort. In which can not be more than, let us say, maybe, 3 million of the 50. And even then, if they can still speak, they could be a broadcastor or something making at least a small amount of money doing something besides nothing to help alleviate the tax burden.
Then we all must consider, simply, how many of these 50 MILLION ARE FAKING, somehow, their disabilities. Putting on an act to get the free money and care.
You know, felony fraud.
Considering, again, all this and more, everyone really needs to embrace the fact that the unemployment rate at any given time that it is taken by our lieing government, is far higher than what they say.
How many people, unemployed, for example, simply fall off the rolls of being officially counted as unemployed? I have fallen into, and I am sure there are tens of millions more, this category at one point or the other in their lifetime.
And, more than likely, because of the hopeless unemployment situation tens of millions are in this predicament this very day. And for quite a while.
This means, all you believers of the governments huge deceptive powers, the unemployment rate (average, nationwide) is far, far, much higher than what these two tobgued lieing pieces of shit politicians and government officials are dictating.
And what about all of the illegal immigrants? And how many are working what is supposed to be regular employment positions, under the table and not paying taxes on the income?
I would have to say, at this time, with all above and much more to be considered (again) the REAL unemployment rate nationwide is no less than 30%. And it has been for quite a long time. If not more and at an even worse rate.
And that is giving the lieing government the benefit of the doubt much more than their lying asses deserve!
So. Keep fooling yourselves into believing all this bullshit, and vote for just another two tongued lieing asshole.
It is all -
