If only that unemployed, $60,000 a year IT technologist would get a job trimming your hedges! If only they would take the jobs of the undocumented farm workers and construction workers.

How unbelievably naive.

I'm sorry but if that 60k per year IT worker cant find a job working IT, but can find a job trimming hedges. That is what he/she should do, while he/she continues to look for a job in IT.

whats the alternative? dont work and collect tax payer funded unemployment?

How unbelievably ignorant.

Of course they should take any job they could get (and afford to live upon - even if it takes two jobs) - but those jobs are not available. They are not existent. There are not millions of jobs sitting there empty, unfilled because the lazy unemployed class won't take them.

How unbelievably ignorant.
