I think we should have mandatory "training" for rich people

Once every five years or so, they have to live, for a month or so, like the rest of us. Work at McDonald's, pay their bills on a pittance, eat Ramen noodles, take public transportation, etc.

I used to be a single food stamp mother; very poor. Now, I am very comfortable, but I will never forget how tough it is out there; never forget where I came from; and never neglect to stop and help someone in that same situation, now, because I am honored that I CAN.

I bet you that if these rich people had to live like the rest of us for a month or so every few years, they would have a lot more respect for the poor.


Is that so, Melanie? Well, it it so happens that I think we should have mandatory "work" for poor people. (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10023906643)

Not the poor people who already work, but the lazy assfaces on the government teat, like 80% of your DU brethren.

For one month, no welfare. Instead, you get out of bed and work. Not at poetry or whatever you think you should be doing, but actual work.

So you'll know what normal people do to make ends meet.

I agree!  Ok, if they have to do that then it goes the other way right?

People on welfare should have to get a job and that could be picking up trash from the side of the road.  They have to learn to live on a budget and only eat what keeps their bodies healthy.  They should also not be allowed any phone, internet, or anything else.  They do really need to learn what it's like to be poor, kwim?

Maybe many of us did already.  Did that ever occur to you?

While not rich, I'm well off.  I've baled hay for $2 an hour.  One summer growing up, I helped a farmer clear some land every Sunday, digging stumps and thistles out of the ground in 90 degree heat.   I've worked in delis, grocery stores, and state parks for minimum wage.  

I went to to college thanks to the the GI bill.  In college, one time I ran out of money between paychecks (I worked part time 25-30 hrs a week the entire time I went to college full time) and had no food, so I ate some sugar that was in my cupboard.  

Just sugar.

Now, how can that be...?  Am I just luckier, or is there something else that makes the difference between you and I?  

Maybe I refused to accept my outward conditions as a reflection of my inner worth.  You can create your own good luck by doing something about your position in life rather than whining about it and watching more Wheel of Fortune, buying lottery tickets, and

     I'm sure the First Wookie and all of DU have many fancy reasons why the 0bummer family should be exempt, and indeed YOU should be forced to endure their month of poorness.

     What the DUmmies mean, of course, not poorness so much as MISERY, which is failure on their part because many people have to eat ramen, don't drive nice cars, don't sport an
iPhone, but are still quite content. And I am also sure that many DUmmies have those things and are still utterly miserable.

That is true they always exempt themselves from anything bad, they get exempted from 0bamacare, they still live it up even during sequester and government shutdowns. They never suffer the consequences from the damage they inflict on the rest of the country.

I'd just like to see people receiving government assistance have yearly (or more) random drug tests. The people who work for to provide them with their handouts do.

Then I think they should have to work for their money, like everyone else. There are plenty of jobs they could do, including those shovel-ready jobs that never got done. They'd learn a skill and maybe they'd get so hard of doing those jobs for so little money, they'd actually join the rest of sociey. Oh, wait, that would never do...the left would lose an entire voting block.

I'm not rich but this is not a part of my life cycle.

Here's a counter-proposal.

At least once a year you should live like a rich person. You should:

* Show up to work on time

* Work more than 40 hours

* Actually work

* Work at something that actually demands tangible results

* Strive to keep your customers satisfied and your competitors at bay

* Assume responsibility for an entire workforce

* Deal with an army of voracious regulators who know nothing about your profession but will shut you down if they imagine you aren't doing it right

* Provide for your own damn spawn

* Pay taxes

* Stop whining


Dealsies?

I lurk at DU. I spoken with your "poor." I don't respect you.
My bathroom is nicer than most of your homes.

What the OP is missing is this: Poor people still work, they earn their way just like me.
What I don't respect is types that populate DU, the lazy ass slugs looking for a hand out. Steve Dawes and his schemes to ride the disability bandwagon. The Las Vegas Leviathan who (although well spoken) turned down 100% guaranteed jobs to stay on his undeserved disability and play World of Warcraft 8 hours a day.

To all lurking DUmbasses (yes, even you, DUmbass Th1onein)

I grew up on a dairy farm, learned to drive garden tractors by age 6, was driving the big 100 hp diesels by 8 (by myself!) 

Dad taught me how to weld, plumb, and run electrical wiring by age 12, at 14, I rebuilt a C-221 International tractor motor, a couple of D-144's (one had a broken crankshaft), and a Perkins gasoline combine motor over the summer, along with the monthly tear downs on the top end of my Suzuki TM-125 motocrosser  (High performance 2-strokes are VERY hard on pistons and rings.  20-30 hours is the norm.)

Graduated High School with honors, got an academic schoolarship to the local Community College, graduated from there cum laude with a Associates Degree in Business Management, and a minor in Farm Operation and Management, always made the Dean's List.

I've worked at least 2 jobs ALL my life, sometimes 3, been married, divorced, married again, raised my 2 kids with my wife's 3, drove a truck for 20 years, been at my current job for 10, have only been OFFICIALLY employed full time (with benefits) for 10 years total, although I've very rarely worked less than 60 hours/week since I was 15.

Never once asked for anything from the government, except TO BE LEFT THE F**K ALONE!!!!

Am I "lucky"?  Hardly.  I just used my time to develop my talents, not chase some DUmbass unrealistic dream.  Dreams are for children, grow the f**k up, and to quote George Thorogood, "Get a haircut, and get a REAL JOB!"

Oh, one more thing.  Maybe one of you DUmmies can "educate" me on this.

Melanie Childers isn't a part of the po folk. She's is highly educated and owns her own business. She wanted to fire her daughter a few years back because the niece screwed off acting like a DUmmy.

She can NEVER be on time for ANYTHING. It took her THREE hours to find something to wear tonight and get dressed. We were supposed to go, on our last night together, before I have to leave town and the state for a LONG time (work), and she was so late that the ****ing restaurant that we had planned to go to was CLOSED. So, we just didn't go out to eat at ALL. Ain't that ****ing superlative!

AND she is late EVERYDAY to work. AND SHE WORKS FOR ME! AND it's affecting her work! I am SICK, SICK, SICK of it!

You nailed it.

Many of us "lucky" people who make a decent living work our asses off.  We constantly look at our career fields and stay innovators (not easy).

And the only point in bringing down the "rich" (what the hell is that exactly?  I am pretty sure the DUmmie definition of "rich" is "anyone who makes more than I do) is to somehow feel good about being lazy or slow.  This idea of "deserving" is for those who don't deserve.

A most excellent post just this side of a proper rant (which would be OK in this case)!

No kidding--a family of four making $15,000 a year that takes advantage of the programs available to them has MORE disposable income than a family of four making over $60,000 per year.

9. Nah, we just need some kind of mandatory military type training...

If everyone had to go through some kind of basic training then they would have some insight into what other people are like. They could meet first hand some of the kinds of people that they have pre-formed opinions about.

Take everyone after they've graduated from high school, buzz their hair and give them the exact same clothes to wear, have them eat the same food etc. Then they only have their personality to separate them from everyone else. Don't let them belong to a group of people that they already know.

I'm not suggesting that we train them for war (because we shouldn't need to fight wars) but train them to live in a world where people who come from different backgrounds. Train them to march and go through obstacle courses and develop teamwork with people from other backgrounds. Teach them that they have to count on other people to win.

It would be a good experience for almost everyone.

Hmmm... separation from family, friends, and community; shaved heads; eating the same food without choice; forced labor; but not the Armed Forces.

Where have I seen this before?

I thought the DUmmies hated the draft?

They hated the draft before they were for it.

DUmbasses are now old enough not to get drafted so that changes things.

Last thing I want/need is some draftee in a fox hole next to me who feels more sympthy to the people we're suppsoed to be fighting.

I'm not rich but this is not a part of my life cycle.

Here's a counter-proposal.

At least once a year you should live like a rich person. You should:

* Show up to work on time

* Work more than 40 hours

* Actually work

* Work at something that actually demands tangible results

* Strive to keep your customers satisfied and your competitors at bay

* Assume responsibility for an entire workforce

* Deal with an army of voracious regulators who know nothing about your profession but will shut you down if they imagine you aren't doing it right

* Provide for your own damn spawn

* Pay taxes

* Stop whining


Dealsies?

I wub you bunny balls.  That was great!  :lmao:

I would like to add one thing to your list.

* Have to get out of bed when very sick and show up at work because other people depend on you completing your project on time.

I agree. I am very tempted to get std but that is only 60% of my pay right now.  I am worth more than that!  :-)

4. I'd go farther than that...
 
Once a year a certain percentage is chosen to live this way indefinitely, with no way of knowing when their nightmare of a new reality will end, or if it will ever end. Of course I'm leaning towards a high percentage.


There is something very wrong with you.
