I have some job hunting advice for you and your husband.
The US Military is always hiring. Even if you don’t want to go active duty then go into the reserves and they will pay for college for you.

At least Burger King is honest work. So there was a silver lining to that recession.

Maybe if someone lit a fire under yer arse rather than your heart you’d have enough ambition and sense to get a real job and hold it.
I don’t wanna pay more taxes for slackers like you who don’t have the gumption to actually take care of yourself.

I was working as a telemarketeer and my husband was at an assembly plant. In 2001 my husband was laid off after his job was outsourced. Then I lost my job too. My husband now works at Target and I held a job at Burger King. A week ago my job was terminated after buisness wasn't so well. Welcome to Free Republic.
To cut to the chase, your problem is that both you and your husband are holding low-wage service jobs.
Stop acting like it's the government's responsibility to get you a job. Go get a useful education, and get a higher-paying job. It's your responsibility. And yes, even here, the government provides educational benefits to folks like you, but it appears that you won't even expend the effort to get up and take them.
I'm sorry, but if you are asking for us to take care of you and coddle you, it isn't going to work.
And, as for the tax cuts, they helped everyone, not just the so-called "wealthy" (in reality, a misnomer, since income taxes are not taxes on wealth but rather on productivity). Even a lowly student like me who works during the summer got relief.
IBTZ, hopefully.

Where the hell do you get off expecting everybody else to take care of you. You made a nest either lay in it or figure out a way to get out of it. Your problems are not my responsibility. They’re yours.
I can’t stand this entitlement mentality shit.

My husband now works at Target and I held a job at Burger King. A week ago my job was terminated after business wasn't so well. what have you done to increase your productivity?
I say raise them back up and give tax breaks to the poor and only the poor!
How will increasing taxes on businessmen and capitalists help increase the demand for labor?
