Some truth to that, but I think most people even on government assistance would prefer to work if that was an option.
Here's an anology:
If you're playing musical chairs and there are fewer chairs than there are people playing the game, somebody is going to get left standing when the music stops. You can blame that individual for not paying attention, being too slow, being afraid to sit down or whatever, but there will still be somebody without a chair. That's simply how the game is played.
Democrats take money from the middle class and give it to people who don't want to work. Republicans take money from the middle class and give it to people who don't have to work. Discuss!

Trust me, I would rather go to a job, every single day than to be living on this paltry sum and struggling. It is a misnomer that people seem to think those of us on unemployment do not want to work. I have been unemployed 7 months now and I have filled out nearly 1000 applications along with sending out my resume. I know I am not the only one. My child has to do without because I am out of work and the fact that it is due to me and my inability to get hired tries my very soul to the core!!
P.S. I like the SNL reference It's Like Butta!
