Use all the sarcasm you want. Even You know the socialist system does not work. It's only a matter of time before the "socialist revolution" in your own country leads to you becoming the next Russia/ North Korea/ Bangladesh/ Venezuela/ etc.
Well, it's a good thing we aren't a socialist country then. We are a democracy with pretty good social programs. There is nothing wrong with putting people ahead of ideology.
Social programs are nothing to be scared of.
I never said you WERE a socialist Nation, but you're country has been moving that way for decades. Here in the U.S. we also have some Good social programs, but in the same basket we have some Terrible social programs. We also have an extraordinary amount of people that leech off of the system (refusing to work {but ABLE to work}/ having kids just for the tax payout/ using Food Stamps in illegal ways/ lying about money earned to gain benefits that could have gone to someone more deserving/ etc.). Not scared of social programs, have had friends and family that received benefits which helped them get out of "ruts" they were in, but dropped the Bennie's once they were on their feet again (not leeching off the system).
LET THE TRUTH BE KNOWN that the latest impeachment "hearing" was a total one-sided, unfair, and Unprecedented circus. The hearing with "Scholars" was supposed to "educate" the American public on what Impeachment means, how it is relates to "this case", and precedents/ history of impeachment and constitutionality of certain things. What it turned out to be was far from what it should have been. These scholars essentially gave their OPINION about the president and his "wrongdoing", and said he is GUILTY. They are merely "directing the democrats" at this point.
LET THE TRUTH BE KNOWN:
Noah Feldman - Bleeding Liberal, 1 of 3 "scholars" chosen by the democrats. Has a bias against president Trump. Presented a lot of "opinion" about Trump, but not much in the way of factual impeachment information.
Michael Gerhardt - The 2nd of 3 "scholars" chosen by the dems. Has been a DNC donor all the way back to 1992! They may not be the most grandiose amounts, but the pattern says he favors the democratic party. He donated to Al Gore/ Bill Clinton/ Barack O/ Hillary Clinton/ multiple DNC parties throughout the country. He also helped the democrats with the Mueller Report (which failed). Also has shown a bias against President Trump.
Pamela Karlan - The 3rd of 3 "scholars" chosen by the dems. Also a DNC donor her entire career, the list includes; Obama/ Hillary/ and Liz warren, as well as many others. Has actually said she's a democrat. Leans WAY LEFT. Actually got to SEE HER BIAS AGAINST TRUMP firsthand when she smeared him, said she does not like him, got "red faced" when talking about him (TDS), and then disgustingly brought the President's 13 year old son into the fray. She really showed her and the dem's true colors.
Johnathan Turley - The ONE Scholar that Republicans chose (they could only choose one person out of 4). Also a self-admitted democrat. Has liberal ideologies, and unlike the "party line" scholars mentioned above, has gone against the democrats in the past for abusing their power and such other "charges". Any time he would make a good point, or make a statement that didn't jive with the dems, he was abruptly cut off. He got the least "camera time" and was asked the fewest questions by democrats (if any).
So, let the truth be known that this whole process is still as Unfair as when it started. I don't blame the president or WH for not participating in this BS. When the cards are so severely stacked against you, why would you even think about going near it.

With your unemployment rate sitting at 3.6% it means there are about 5.8M people currently unemployed. Even if half of them are leeching off the system that is not an extraordinary amount of people. Plus, it is highly unlikely half of them are leeching.
Here we would rather not pay ridiculously high medical insurance just to spite people who maybe are down on their luck

Well, I'm glad you were able to figure out the number of workers in the U.S. and find what 3.6% is for the unemployment total. BUT, it's not just "unemployed" individuals that receive benefits from the system. The total number of recipients in 2015 was over 52 Million. In 2019 they estimate closer to 65 Million people receiving benefits from one of 79 programs (Even if you cut that in half, that's still an extraordinary amount of people). In 2016 it was found that 77.8 BILLION dollars were fraudulently received. Now 3 years later, with many many more people receiving bennies, we can be assured that the fraudulently gained amount is much higher.
I applaud President Trump's Administration for changing the guidelines/ requirements for Food Stamps and such. If you are able to work, GET YOUR ASS OUT THERE AND WORK!!
I see people with missing limbs go to work every DAY! I've seen people who live in their cars go to work every Day! I've seen 10 - 14 year olds during the summer get up and "GO TO WORK" Every Day! What's your excuse? Too much Meth and Heroin in your system? Boozed your life into a trash can? Just too fuckin LAZY!!?? SMH.
Also, I don't Spite anyone for being down on their luck. Been there myself, but have gotten Well past that, I can't sit there and "feel sorry" for myself, such a waste of time.
What our aging Canadian, and most liberals, apparently does not understand is that the unemployment figure is not based on the total population or even the total adult population. It is based on those drawing a weekly unemployment check and therefore are actively looking for work and the total of the population who is currently employed.
The weekly unemployed figured comes from the unemployment office. Now I admit the only time I was on the unemployment roll was over 47 years ago when I got off active duty. Back then you had to visit the unemployment office and prove that you were looking for work in order to draw a weekly check.
The total currently employed comes from the IRS.
Most welfare recipients are not on unemployment because they are not looking for employment. Many of these are the ones leaching off the system.
