You know the difference between unemployment and welfare? People on unemployment used to have jobs and were just laid off. People on welfare are lazy and sit on their asses all day.
Are you saying that poor people are just lazy and sit on their asses all day?
No, that would be a groundless generalization.
But what you say about welfare recipients is also a groundless generalization. People on welfare are on there for a myriad of reasons. It's not right to say that they are all lazy as they could be unable to work due to accidents and such. Welfare recipients could be victims of harm if too many people agree with your idea.
You see it's people like you that spread ignorance.
I hope that if we look at the facts together you will reconsider that assessment. Welfare is a last resort that is almost impossible to receive from the government, keeping up with the ongoing paperwork is practically a full-time job, and if these recipients find any work, even temporarily, they lose everything. They are stuck in a situation that they never wanted, so the least we can do is acknowledge their plight.
