I expected no less because (most? some?) Americans are always so afraid of someone mooching of the government. God beware, I could help out the little unemployed man with my taxes! Let's just say I am glad I live where I live ;) I rest my case in this thread.


Except you wouldn't be the "little unemployed man," you'd be the "man who is unemployed because he considers himself too good for the available jobs." You're damn right I don't want to support someone who is only unemployed because of his ego. If that's a uniquely American attitude then I am damn proud to be an American.

Implying that we would all rather see every unemployed person starve to death because we don't want to pay for unnecessary moochers is just typical towering European arrogance on your part. See, I can do it too :)
