You know, I was in the grocery store the other day, and saw a woman buy three big fat live lobsters on a government card. I stood there with my ground beef @2.99/lb, and wondered why I have worked my whole life, and never bought lobsters like that.
Hey, if she wants to waste her government card on lobster, let her. Personally, I'd rather have the ground beef.
Go down into the hood and watch em buy Red Bull, Chips, Pepsi, and Slim Jims for the kids... all on the EBT card at the corner bodega. Then they break out the cash for the Newports and blunt wraps. Unbelievable.
I don't know what a "government card" is, or where you live, but I'm guessing that this means she was "on benefits" and had a taxpayer-funded food-card of some kind entitling her to buy food? (Rather than a taxpayer-funded government credit-card because she worked for the government in some capacity???). But assuming that it's the former, presumably she has a fixed amount of money on it, per week/month, for herself and/or her family? So what difference does it make whether she chooses to spend it on lobster? (Sounds like you weren't about to buy the lobster, anyway, if you'd already bought beef?). Ooh, not for me: I'd far rather have the lobster!
Do you really think that the guys on the W.S. work harder than the other guys? Or they contribute to the economy more? Explain me why do these guys get such paychecks.
Why? You think everybody can do it? Then why not do it? Capitalist economy can't do without WS. Socialist economy is a different story.
