^ good idea, ten hours community service a week is not too much to ask really for people on the dole is it? I would do that if I was on the dole

 

i dont know about that, it implies that the unemployed are criminals, most of them arent

 

Most people who do community service aren't criminals you know. I used to do it when I was a teenager because I wanyed to. I've never commiyte  crime I, like many other people, just wanted to pitch in.

Scifiboy doesn't want to have to work for his dole cheque. He's entitled to it.

 



Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
