Well. One thing everyone should keep in mind: those video game characters don't just level themselves.I never thought I should be paid for not working. it just people who do not think they can, so they don't.
Now comes the liberal butisms...But what about these people. Yes there could be help on a payback system.
I did not say that funding those unwilling to work is in the bill. I simply asked the question. Yes or no.Of course you know that the “unwilling to work” phrase is nowhere to be found in Ocasio-Cortez’s resolution ... only the dishonest rw characterization of it ... right?
What is really at stake with economic security for all, which is what the resolution calls for, is the ability of people to hold out for a decent wage instead of being forced by hunger and terror to work for slave-labor wages. It means people working so they can go to a football game, not so their child doesn’t die of a treatable illness. It means more wages for every worker, instead of a race to the bottom.
Do you believe that we have a responsibility to provide economic security to, say, the Rockefeller heirs, even if they are unwilling to work?I did not say that funding those unwilling to work is in the bill. I simply asked the question. Yes or no.
There is this, though, making it a valid question.
From CNBC
The actual resolution that outlines the Green New Deal does not include the "unwilling to work" part, but the overview document, released by New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's office, does include the "unwilling" language. The overview entails the "nuts and bolts" of the plan. Ocasio-Cortez identifies as a democratic socialist.
CNBC has reached out to Ocasio-Cortez's office for comment.
I voted and my vote tells the answer.Do you believe that we have a responsibility to provide economic security to, say, the Rockefeller heirs, even if they are unwilling to work?
So you think that the rich should be required to work for a living like the rest of us?I voted and my vote tells the answer.
