"...people who are not willing to accept a full-time job..." (Haley Barbour)

How many people do YOU know, who will not accept a fulltime job, and who prefers to collect unemployment checks instead?

Haley Barbour thy name is WHORE.

where's Paul Muad'dib now that America needs him?

Biggest tax cut by far for most people. Alabama doesn't need tax cuts, they need an increase in pay standards.. that state has broke as a joke people...

One has to have paid taxes,... or have an income on which they pay taxes.

This is not like a chicken/egg thing it's more like a cart horse thing.

talking about. If they want me to take a minimum-wage job when I've been making a lot more than that, then I'd do it only if it didn't take away from my job search, and even then I'd sure have to think about it. Several relatives, in the past, took whatever job they could get after having good-paying jobs, and they were stigmatized by potential employers for doing so. Collecting unemployment certainly shouldn't be shameful, and looking for a decent job should BE your job when you are on unemployment. That's hard to do when you have to spend 40 hours a week at a McJob.

Also, remember that unemployment is for ppl like electricians, construction workers, etc., who, due to the nature of the work, have periods of unemployment of weeks or a few months. Frankly, I wouldn't bother to look for a McJob if I were one of those folks, either, unless I thought my unemployed period would last months.

if you'll just work cheap enough. :eyes:

He doesn't get that people have had their belly full of cheap labor GOP plantation masters like him. Why tweety would even lend credibility to an asshole like him now is beyond me. Anything they have to say at this point lacks credibility and the quicker they are marginalized the better.

rationalize the callous nature of your position by categorizing the poor as lazy and unwilling to work. Sadly, for every one example Barbour could come come up with of a poor person that does in fact game the system, there's a hundred hard working people who don't.

Companies DON'T WANT fulltimers.. fulltimers expect, and ask for perks..

Companies want several part timers, rather than a few full timers..part timers are HUNGRY, and will usually come in early, stay late, work shitty shifts..

And I think that should be a fulltime job. :mad:

If a person makes $50K per year at your job, that same person will make $25K per year on UC.

Republicans want that person to take a full time job for $24K per year with no regular hours, no benefits, and no guarantee that the person won't be axed again in six months.

People aren't willing to accept a full-time job if UC will provide a living wage but the job won't.


Incidentally, Haley Barbour is a grade-A asshole.

If you don't know how to spell it, sound it out and use the spell check!
People can then know what you are talking about, instead of having to guess.
Unemployment Compensation.

The rest of us will, sadly, find out soon enough.

It must be a local thing.

There are words in front of it and behind it. What are they?

today's stuff is not there yet..

Because that was his secret codespeak.

has no full time jobs listed and only a couple of part time ones. Where are we going to find those jobs without re-location?

A local manufacturing outfit in which you MUST speak fluent Spanish but English is not required
Legal Secretary

That's it.

John McCain said that Americans weren't willing to work picking lettuce for $50/hour; nazis are so fscking arrogant and out of touch with decent Americans. :grr:

Fulltime, part time. ANYTHING.

I also work as a freelancer (chasing down funding and financing for projects) in the film industry and write for income (cumulatively about 10 hours a week total). Those are my primary sources of income, my failing hunt for a supplemental P/T job with health benefits is failing...but forced to choose, I'd forgo insurance and the P/T job rather than work F/T because I can't afford the pay-cut.

So...I'm 1. I think I'm largely alone in this category though so who are these other "people" to whom Barbour refers. I also pay more in taxes than the average American because I have to pay both the employer and employee share of many taxes...I don't care about paying them, but it seriously sucks that I'm ineligible for the benefits of those taxes (Soc. Sec., unemployment during dry periods, other social safety net programs) because of GOP initiatives and assholes like Haley Barbour, Newt Gingrich and Grover Norquist.

Fuck you, Haley.

white trash and blacks . They would rather live on foodstamps and welfare:sarcasm:


What an ass he is!
