Here is the truth.
The biggest change from 1965 when I started working and today is the lack of jobs for the lass educated. There's even a shortage of jobs for the well educated. Any one who wants to convince himself that the majority of unemployed are lazy is a fool, or thinks we are.
What about university students who have slogged through 6-8 years of studying through school, high school and university who can't get a job, or the 30 and up year old who has worked for decades and lost his job?
When you're screaming to pay less tax to buy more comfort goods, it's not going to dsound right if you talk about cutting off those who deserve some support. Because you're hoarding all the goods or outsourcing their jobs.
No one has even bothered to think or reply to my posts on the consequences of cutting spending.

That's the biggest problem. Modern life is at fault for the unemployment. As we automate and export jobs, this situation will not change.
If you black, born in the wrong area and poorly educated, it's an almighty struggle to get a job at school leaving age. Yes you can go into the fields and pick fruit/veg or a meat processing factory and work with illegals. Because the bosses asking for less taxes will pay wages only illegals will work for. Odds are he won't give it to you.
One solution to this problem is fine them $20,000 per illegal worker, even if it sends him bankrupt. If so sell his factory, home and the rest. I did hear on a TV documentary that bosses don't get fined in some US States. Is that true? In the UK they do.
Maybe tax people outsourcing affiliates work to overseas citizens. So what ever you pay someone outside your country is taxes at 100% on top. You can't complain about people not working while you export jobs. </sarcasm>
Still it's a good point, why should China, India and a few other Third World countries develop millionaires and billionaires buy selling to the First World without any penalty in the form of a tax on their goods?
Or community work for the long term unemployed or the school leavers unable to find a job in 6 months of leaving school. In exchange for the dole. This will cause a lot of anger at first, because of the change in our societies. It will be labelled as slave labour. As we lose more jobs in the First World, got a better idea?
