They days of scrubbing your doorstep and sweeping the footpath outside your house are gone. We have become a lazy society.

Typical right-wing claptrap ... the implied argument, if you can call it that, is so spurious and illogical that it is hardly worth addressing. Blame the poor for their poverty; blame the unemployed for the lack of decent, well-paid work.
According to tories there is a "level playing field" out there, and anyone with enough gumption can succeed
What a crock of horse manure. Let the privileged few export good jobs to places where labor is cheap and unprotected. Let them hide their profits in tax shelters. And then blame the plebs for not being able to make a go of it flipping burgers. Tories load the dice in favour of the already rich. They create a diillusioned underclass, and then blame them for continually crapping out. If you chant "the poor and unemployed are lazy" long enough, even many of the poor and umemployed come to believe it.
