Unemployment, and so on

Just more proof that crapitalism is complete and utter garbage. This isn't even wage slavery here, this is just plain old fashioned slavery period. Indentured Servitude 101. What the fuck is next? Concentration camps I suppose?

I confess that your over-the-top language is a barrier to me. I do find it difficult to read your posts. I am not even sure I want to read your answer to my question below, because of this. But here goes:

So, how do you make the leap to slavery there? Where, exactly, does that article show that these young people are being forced to do those jobs? All I got out of it is that they lose their government-paid benefits if they don't keep working at jobs they got because of that program. If you define that as slavery, then you need a better education. Just because some lawyers use that language in their presentations on behalf of their clients doesn't make it so.

Oddly enough, although my income is paid by my employer and not by my government, if I don't keep on working I will not be paid either!
