(11,518 posts)Young people dont care about insurance. We all felt indestructible and could not afford it anyway. I Never got benefits until the military, then through school and my first 10 years of work, there where no benefits. I had no insurance until I got a career job, at 37 years old. Second, Medicaid does not just pay a monthly income to those basement dwellers.
So, those young people that are not getting paid now, and are gaming and getting High are never gonna go work in hell heat, when they are living it up.
And, no construction company will hire somebody that does not know how to hammer a nail, or can not physically do that back breaking work, plus could get the business sued from fucking up a job and ruin the business rep.
These people are fucking STUPID!!!!
How come they never go after the kids living in daddys basement? Are they telling us, a woman can never discipline her own children, only men can raise a kid properly?
Sounds about right from GQP.

you remove social safety nets, you remove the immigrants, to serve what purpose? Greed always finds a way or a reason or, most of the time, no reason at all.
if you have noticed the sometimes not so subtle and sometimes very subtle messaging from the right wing: those who are on medicare need to work for it.
Or the other creeping issue: children being put back to work.
You hear from one corner of the right wing universes the tired proclamation, "I worked as a kid!!!". But when you take a closer look, is most of these right wing types really didn't have to work as a kid. They were doing extra work for spending money, While they were living a very comfortable middle class life.

And those hard to fill jobs? they will be replaced by former Medicare recipients, the aged and children
