Virginia to lower unemployment payments

Welfare payments to be slashed ¥74 billion to root out the comfortably poor | The Japan Times

Welfare benefits will be slashed by ¥74 billion over a three-year period starting from fiscal 2013, after a government panel found that some people are making more on the dole than the average low-income person who is not spends on living costs, it was learned Sunday.

It's about time someone started showing some fiscal sanity. When we get to the point where welfare pays more than working, it's time to lower welfare.

It's about time someone started showing some fiscal sanity. When we get to the point where CEOs earn seven figure salaries, while funding politicians to lower the minimum wage and cut welfare, it's time to put in place executive salary caps.

I would rather they stop the insane wars.
 
Welfare is like feeding a colony of feral cats. The more you pay them to do nothing but make more feral cats the more cats you will have. Capping executive salaries has the same result as having the person who feeds the cats move away.

And there is a solution to ending war. It's called surrender.

Times are changing and the freebies around the world are coming to an end. Either like Greece is doing it, which is the government has no more money to give, or like Japan is doing it by incrementally ending welfare forcing the people into the work force.

Good thing nothing in the consitution supports the governments ability to do that. The only mechanism you would have would be to impose that on government contractors.

Yeah, looking at last year's federal budget, that might be a good idea. :eusa_eh:

I haven't made 15 posts quite yet, but you can see it with a google search.

Apples and oranges.... it is of no concern to you if the owners (shareholders) of Exxon/Mobile want to pay the CEO $25,000,00+ a year... it's not taxpayer $$...

True, if you consider the growing divide between rich and poor a "good thing". :eusa_whistle:

Dont look now but your class warfare is showing......
Surprised you didnt bring up the fact that the ceo actually has a job and works for a living. The other guys being discussed here....not so much.
We all know people take advantage of unemployment. No reason we shouldnt make it less appealing.

That's fair, but it's a concern of the workforce as a whole. What needs to happen is a cultural shift where those that hold up the country are given precedence over those that simply hold intellectual property, or a business degree.

I've run companies with 25 or so employees.. and that was massive amounts of work. Can you imagine running a company with worldwide ops and thousands of employees?

Oh, don't worry. I'm a big supporter of welfare reform - to make it match the new deal.

There are quite a few failings within this country, two of which are the current use of welfare and heightened executive compensation.

Can we cap your salary? Can you cite the part of the Constitution that allows the federal government to determine how much money someone is allowed to have?

And exactly what good is an executive salary cap going to do other than satisfy your jealous, envious apatite to stick it to somebody more successful than the loser you have become?

I consider it none of government's buisness.

If you want to run a company and work for the same amount or a set multiple of your worker's salarys, hop on it.
