Quoting alameda:
Well consider yourself lucky, In the USA most have to work until they drop. At least you have healthcare and social services. |
I actually prefer knowing there are laws in the US that will protect me from age discrimination in the workplace. I can't even imagine posting a job opening and including an age requirement!!

I do consider myself very very lucky and yes we do have healthcare and social services, but i have to contibute a large amount of money out of my wage every week to pay for these. Some people and this is people of all nationalities including some lazy british, use and abuse these service without ever having made any contributions whatsoever or any intention of contributing.

People that misuse the system come every day to the Mental Health Center where I work. They don't even bother coming in for their appointments because 1. it is free 2. we have to continue to see them if they are on state funded insurance! A lot of times they will try to get money from their child's 'mental health problem'. Some of these people's entitlement makes me sick. Some of them are so fat and lazy, would rather have their kids live in poverty than get out there and work. Grrrr. How do you continue to weigh 350 pounds and be so poor??? Some people really need it, don't get me wrong, but isn't it sad people will play up a 'disability' for $600/month. In Turkey this sounds good, here 1 person can't live on that...let alone a whole family. Sorry, I should have started another thread for my rant.
