NUGENT: Do nothing, get nothing

All good things come from effort. This is why any able-bodied person receiving welfare, unemployment or other financial assistance from Fedzilla, a state or county should do something to earn it.


Just as no responsible parent gives his child an allowance without expecting a certain number of chores to be completed in return, this same common-sense approach on a national scale would do wonders to bring America out of her malaise. There are millions of able-bodied Americans receiving financial assistance who can do something in return for the assistance being provided them by their fellow Americans.


One of life’s immutable and irrefutable truths is that giving people financial assistance without demanding something in return strips them of their pride, work ethic and soul. It’s a form of slavery, if you will. This poisonous policy ultimately destroys families, entire communities and, historically, entire societies. Giving someone something for nothing is analogous to rewarding bad behavior. Only idiots do that. And the French.


Over the past 50 years, we’ve created an entire subclass of Americans who literally know nothing other than receiving various forms of government financial assistance without having to do anything to earn it. It’s a big-time wrong approach unless the goal is to destroy these people and their communities. President Johnson’s Great Society didn’t turn out to be so great, after all.


Everywhere I go in America, I see things that could be fixed, spruced up, cleaned up or replaced. You would have to be blind not to see the same things in every community in America.


There is trash that needs to be picked up in city parks and all along highways nationwide, buildings that need to be painted, weeds that need to be pulled, snow that needs to be shoveled, lawns that need to be mowed, schools that need to be painted, fences that need to be fixed, sidewalks that need to be repaired, good charities that need basic labor, kids that need tutoring, etc. Maybe Jimmy Carter and Habitat for Humanity will teach them how to build a house. The work list is only limited by your imagination.


Under my brilliant, common-sense plan, if a person doesn’t put in a certain number of hours of work each week, he loses financial assistance for a month. When a person gets hungry enough, he will work. Being hungry and working for basic subsistence is the first step on the journey of rehabilitating pride and a work ethic. A dose of tough love is a highly effective motivator.


Being busy with a sense of purpose is the goal of those of us who understand what a real great society should be. Great societies are not created or sustained by having able-bodied people sitting at home, collecting a check for nothing while watching their giant-screen televisions, surfing the Internet or playing video games.


Helping people is not sending them a check without any expectation of effort. That’s how to destroy people. If you truly want to help people, incentivize them to earn their own way. That liberates them and turns them into producers instead of parasites. It’s a simple upgrade begging to be had.


I absolutely want to help people down on their luck, but I know that true help is giving people a hand up, not a handout. The ultimate goal is to create tough, smart people with that wonderful all-American, kick-ass attitude and work ethic. That’s what China fears the most.


Only squawkers, socialist punks and various bloodsuckers will find fault with the abundantly clear common-sense truism that all good things come from heart-and-soul effort. They should always be ignored. They are always the problem, never the solution.


At the end of the day, all red-blooded Americans must ask themselves if they have chosen to be in the asset column or the liability column. Our enemies are paying attention. I pray to God we are.

Could not agree more but have you every gotten some community service people to work at clean up of ditchs or whatever?  For the most part never again.  They do not care and know no better as they were taught this way of life.  In the army I seen people work harder to get out of work than what the work would of been.  And then they would feel good about themselves.  Pile of crab. 
But then if you do not feed them maybe they will work.  But there is someone, somewhere that will continue to see they are fed and continue to destroy them and take all their pride away from them.  Our government is great at doing this over the years.  And this goes back more than 50 years.  Some of them have been doing it for generation and know no other form of life.  If we get enough of them they will destory our country.  Hopefully in time we will learn and change.  db

How about a database that you could look up by name, zip, city etc. anyone receiving any federal/state aid of any kind and how much they receive every month.  We're paying them the handouts why shouldn't they be put on display for taking our money?  That might not be enough to make them want to do something to earn a dollar but it will get the rest of the working population talking and pissed off.
Hunt in your own state or move here and pay taxes.

that is one f the best ideas ever you can look everything else up maybe it will shame some of the people into getting off their ass and getting a job but on the other hand most are worthless and dont care how or why they get the govt check and even brag about being a drain on society so might not effect those pos one bit

I think that everyone that wants to collect a welfare, unemployment, or whatever else kind of check should have to pass a drug test. The first time you fail it you are automatically cut off for a year or two and the next time you are done for good. Make it mandatory once a month, not random where you may go five years without one. It would cost some money to do all the testing but the gov would still save money on the deal just from booting off the people that fail.

The thing i find odd is people can have a good job and still get welfare (WIC) I worked with a guy that had 3 kids and a job that paid over 50K a year and recieved (WIC). The familys kids didnt like penut butter and canned juice. He basicly supplied the whole crew with the stuff they didnt use. (eggs penut butter juice and breakfast food)  Something not right there

garretts,
i love that idea as well. i believe georgia or alabama does that or tried to get their state to pass that several years back. i might be wrong with the state. i really don't understand why that isn't in place in every state.

What's held back a lot of these types of community service programs is two things.  One is that they're not cheap.  By that I mean that in addition to still having to give them their support funds, you now also have to pay for people to keep track of them doing that.  So, while it's a good idea to make them work, it's not necessarily going to be cheaper.  The second problem is that there are businesses that currently provide a lot of these services.  They fight tooth and nail against these types of programs because it's going to cut into their profit.  This also happens with other govt things like the National Guard.  Here in DL we get to sit and watch them move dirt from one side of the lot to the other as they practice and do their training.  Meanwhile, we have boat ramps that are under water, need raising, and would be great practice for them.  But....  The ND Contractor's Association won't allow it because it'll cut into work they could be doing and getting paid for.  We've tried hard in the past to get permission and their Assn almost always says NO.

I'd mentioned it before, but will say it again regarding the last extension of unemployement benefits.  I think they should have required you to at least do some type of work.  The problem is that if the job isn't comparable you don't have to take it.  While I somewhat agree with that for the first normal period, any payments after that should require you to work and then just pay the difference between what you got paid and your regular benefits.  This would do 2 things.  One is save us taxpayers the amount you made working.  And two, is that while the job might be below what you did before, a good worker would move up the ladder fast and may actually find a new career opportunity for them.
