many people can lose their jobs for what they do on their own time. Employers often expect you to represent their values... and if you don't, then you should find new employment.
Now, in this case it's a catch-22. Because someone sitting at home smoking dope on the public dole due to nothing but refusal to take responbility... well... that's kind of inline with this goverment's values... So in that sense, I can get the complaint.
Personally, I like to think that those on welfare work for me. I'm helping foot the bill, afterall. So I'd like them to represent my values... and I have a very simple way to make that happen.
Anyone on Welfare works 3 days a week, 12 hours days, doing the jobs that even Steve Roe won't try on his show. Picking up cigarrette butts on the street, cleaning ditches, doing my dishes and starching my shirt collars. THEN they attend school 4 hours a night after their shift.
Three days during the week, they "babysit" another welfare recipients offspring while he/she works and goes to school.
They get Sunday off.
Everybody wins.
