Why take a job when you can make more on the government gravy train.
Well yeah that too, but I think the truth is, more people than many may think would really like to fend for themselves. Yes, a lot of people are perfectly willing to sit there and take the handouts, but many who had no other choice will probably be willing to go back to work, if it actually pays enough to make a living.
That’s what employers are going to have to deal with. The same insufficient paycheck as the last 20 years won’t get people interested.
There, fixed that.
I always say what it is because the fed gov has very little real money of it's own. These subsidies are paid by money extracted in one way or another from individual and business taxpayers.
The fed gov does have plenty of phony cyber money. We joke about the FED printing press but it's not even that. Those Bernake/Yellen Bucks are nothing more than digital line item entries in the fed gov' s equally phony financial cyber ledger.
