Maybe we should all just quit our jobs.

I'm with you, haven't gotten a raise in two years despite being an exemplary employee. People I have worked here with make more on unemployment than I do at a full time job. WTF. One of them is going for disability too for "migranes". I'm sure they'll get it. Not sure they ever worked a full shift much less a week.

I hope I'm taking my dirt nap when the music stops. It's not going to be pretty.

Oh well.

While I agree that there it is a problem, i don't consider VA payments, Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare Welfare. A lot of people who receive those benefits still work and contribute to society.

Does it matter ?  When paid out benefits = the entire earned paychecks of all non gov employed citizens, it’s stunning. Meaning even if gov took 100% of your check, they would barely break even, just on welfare / benefits.  Growing daily.  

Eventually they go broke and can’t pay for the welfare mom with 9 kids, nor SS to the elderly, nor va benefits either. Hell, prob cut ss and va and keep paying for the welfare moms 9 kids.

Our government services and welfare are all setup in a way that incentivizes people to remain unemployed. Once you're enrolled for all the free shit, it's usually not in your best interest to start working an entry level job. We really need to completely redo the entire system.

How else do you expect the lazy to make ends meet? In our Socialist society now it is recognized as a profession, just like computer programmers, Auto mechanics, commercial pilots and surgeons. Being professionally lazy and poor comes with its own set of skills if you think about it.

It also allows the government to resist stopping Illegals into the country with the excuse we need more laborers. When the musical chair music stops it is going to get very ugly.

While you all are worried about rich people not paying their Fair Share (TM), they are eviscerating the wealth of the middle class through inflation.

ETA At this point is there any practical solution?  Imagine the civil unrest if they knocked out 25% of that.  Two trillion dollars.  People would lose their marbles.

I am curious if there is a recipient count for those two line items.

How many people get the free money bennies and how many people are the private sector earners?

I know it will have some Venn Diagram overlap, but I think it would still be an interesting addition to the equation.

It only took the Soviets a few months to realise that doesn't work and implement "no work, no food".
