Kent Parkstreet, Laird Doofus on Nostr: I reckon the main reason governments won’t increase the rate of unemployment ...
I reckon the main reason governments won’t increase the rate of unemployment benefits is that they believe middle class voters will object because “dole bludgers”.
The campaign to blame the victims of the system, not the system itself, has been successful.
The system serves the rich.
