don't you know about the old, desktop computer at the jobs resources center 20 miles away and not near the bus line which you are only allowed to use for 20 minutes at a time?

that's your ticket out!

or the socialist library, you socialist.
Shit, whatever's clever, endevour. Let's "getttur-done"....

even though some people do settle for the bare min, plenty of people are trapped by it. it's called the cycle of poverty, and multiculturalist mudscuttles did not invent it.

it's easier to put your life on auto pilot when you've got some funds. when you are dependent on $290 check to $290 check, even the little things are a bigger hassle. you might not have the money to do your grocery shopping all at once rather than day by day. it's all part of the poverty trap, and it is tough as hell to escape.

this bootstrap argument is semi-utopian and ignorant of cold, hard reality.
you don't think I was living on $12.50 an hour for 10 months? that's around $410 net per week - my rent was $230. Then utilities, food, weed, smokes, petrol and small amount into savings it was gone. I was living week to week - it sucks and that's why endeavoured to change it.

No one in my family would say such shit.
What? That they enjoy manly-love? You sure you don't like men? How do you even know being so closeted? You fail. How embarrassing.

You may be ignorant from a lack of education, but if it's sympathy you seek, try another thread.

only an idiot would think I was implying that. If a company can spend $60k to save $100k, they are going to write a check for $60k.

But they still had to spend the 60k.
great half baked theory.

one problem again. not a single concrete example to back up your half baked numbers.*

your example may have been better received if you supposed they paid a few million to save several hundred million though. your absurd, deluded, unrealistic ratio is what did your non-empirical, theoretical example the greatest disservice.

My life was compromised more times than I care to think about.
If you were "highly skilled" you don't need any programs.

I see people in my town who earn more than enough to live well getting assistance, a caseworker and free food each month.
You are a simpleton. Black and white. Do skills repair disease turbo? could you afford 2200 extra per month out of the blue......for life??????

i'm not sure you're trying to make any point here.

you can live like a decent human being without government assistance in most places in the US on 10.10.*

some people are happy to live week to week, some want to earn more and do, some want to earn more and can't.

12.50 an hour would be a great wage for any person to live on very comfortably outside of the bay area, LA, NYC, or other very sought after pieces of real estate.

i told kynes the other day that he should take his low wage ass up to oregon and rent a damn farm. there are lots around here, some places will even pay you to look after acreage.
