Re: Work for dole

They should work for their dole money to earn self respect and the respect of their families.
At a meeting earlier this week a woman approached me with a problem about a14 year old boy who has been excluded from school. He is now languishing in the local Pupil Referal Unit. He has three generations before him who have never worked, just lived off the state. Clearly the boy sees no point in being in school as he has no intention of ever working for a living.
These are the type of families who have to be jolted out of their complacency and made to take responsibility for themselves.
Because we live in a high technology society we are never going to have work for all as in paid employment, we will have to create jobs, things that are socially desirable.
