Ok, so we're back to wage slavery then, instead of just plain slavery
Except this time, there is a coercive element to it, since they are being forced to work for free or they lose their unemployment benefits. Not exactly democratic, is it? It's just another bourgeois tactic in a long line of countless to screw the proles into working for $3 an hour (you know very well most of those people will be working more hours, than less...the bourgeois will take any free labor they can get). The additional assistance they get elsewhere (if any) just further demonstrates my point: they are economically dependent and tied to the system, much like serfs were tied to the land in the Feudal era. It kind of reminds me of the situation here in the United States: "Those damn poor people on welfare are leeching the system!!!".....yea, as if they have this romanticized glamorous life of being on welfare. Because after all the benefit of welfare checks and food stamps just completely outweighs the benefits of corporate tax write-offs, and near trillion-dollar bailouts. Only people who are leeching the system are the trust fund pretty boys that never have to lift a finger in their life because they inherited daddies business and wealth. LMAO. I realize you aren't necessarily defending the article, but nevertheless, the system, and this particular policy, isnt justified.
Damn, I have to say, that post was rhetorical as all hell even by my standards. But I'll be damned if it ain't the truth. It is.
