Noting the judgmental nature here.Oh, it is most definitely about the money first and foremost. Staying home and spending government checks is simply much easier than working for the same or less money. This is human nature.
I am not in a position where I need to take such a job, but I see signs all over where businesses are hiring with benefits, college tuition, insurance, etc. with no experience or education necessary. No, you won't be living near the country club on the salary, but the opportunity for advancement is certainly there and you can take advantage of the benefits. I started out at a company that didn't pay great but had a bonus structure, of which I routinely took advantage. I worked hard, stayed late, didn't complain about what was fair and not fair and what do you know, things have worked out well. My parent's taught me to have a good work ethic and not to expect things for free. That is uncommon nowadays, particularly among Democrats.
You assume because people are making a choice for what’s right for them that they’re lazy. My generation has had nothing but abuse for the older generation corporate structure. They work their asses off and get screwed the first chance they get.
People are choosing not to put up with abuse. It’s not because they’re lazy. It’s because they have a spine.
