IT'S ABOUT GROVELING

One of the reasons the wingnuts are so upset about unemployment benefits is the power they give to employees. They would much prefer that the workers go back to 19th Century groveling. Last night, John Gibson related an anecdote from a friend of his that made this point very clearly. The friend owns a restaurant and fired everyone in it. He did hire some back and told Gibson that they work harder but he complained that many were content to take unemployment instead of going back to work for him.
