How about this

[Lithium381]

<druggie> Hi, my name is Lithium, and this is my first time in P&N. </druggie>

I've had this idea for a little while and figured i'd see what you think. I made a post over in OT regarding welfare for general discussion, decided the next one should be in here. Anyways, basically it came down to the fact that Welfare was designed as a support system, suplimentary, not a support system, as in total dependance as it is being used for now by many. I've read a few articles that say we should be helping them get jobs, but none are available for their skill level(next to none). I think a viable solution would be to hook up bikes to generators and make them produce our countries energy(seeing as how the oil thing might fall through, and much of the countries power plants are run on natural gas). Basically you don't pedal, you don't get your check, same with inmates in the prisons, they do nothing but drain our resources, they should pedal too, or no food! It's a completely unskilled job, anyone can do it! Comments?

No.

Just execute criminals. As for pedaling, well, you have to feed them or else they can't pedal. I don't know how cost effective that would be.

I would prefer to use millions of hamsters or gerbils instead.

Why did you walk out on the other thread you started?

Just execute zealots.

It's a good start. Other potential jobs:
Washing windows.
Picking up trash.
Graffitti removal.

Any others?

As do you. The only difference between your 2 posts are who should be executed without given second thought. Of course I would also assume umbrella was merely being sarcastic, giving whom he quoted and what he stated.

Your desire for a 100% Republican rule suggests that you really like facism.

zendari is a model fascist.

I'd rather see useless OT posters like yourself hooked up to generators - preferably on the receiving end.

 

[ntdz]

Thats a funny idea. I actually like the idea for inmates, but not for normal welfare people.

You know where you can stick those gerbils.

You really like loneliness don't you? Get used to it.

The people have chosen the Republican party. There's nothing fascist about it.

A 'model' is a small copy of the real thing.

There are more than one definition of model.

This is the defitiion the idiot was using.

"One serving as an example to be imitated or compared" (dictionary.com)

Ayup!

 

[UptheMiddle]

Other jobs people on welfare could do to help contribute instead of the current vampirism on society:

Janitors
Ditch diggers
Assembly line workers (kiss this goodbye, though.....no thanks to Clinton's NAFTA opening the floodgates for global outsourcing)
Greeter at Walmart
Toll Booth operator
Grocery bagger
McDonald's/Burger King/Taco Bell.....
Parking lot attendant
etc, etc

Of course, there are those welfare recipients who truly need the help and still endeavor to help themselves. On the other hand, heaven forbid should you propose things like making/helping people become productive, though. Half of the liberals in here posting their lives away are probably on welfare themselves.
