Fuck the system? You're leeching off the system.
-------------------- Did he dream about dragons? Did he dream about deer? Did he whisper he names of friends who were near? What songs did they play, and how far away? Why did he whisper, why did she scream? What does the sound of a screen door mean? Who talks on the hill? Who goes to the cellar, can you feel the chill? Where does the river, when will the wind? How far are the mountains? Where do they end? Why would the church? Did the service begin? Tell me who died, and tell me who cried. Help me hide in the skin of a deer, my zippered-up bag in the mouth of a stag so swiftly I go through rows of does, it flows, it flows, it flows, it flows all over the hill where the green grass grows.

Not knowing how to spell "benefit" properly, this is not a surprising development.

When I was on unemployment i had to look for jobs and fax in proof that I was looking for a job. I live in Michigan and there are no jobs, so that was moot, but I still had to ATTEMPT to find a job.
Might wanna check into that mang.

Yeah I doubt he realizes they will be keeping tabs on him for collecting. I would imagine being on unemployment would negatively effect his credit and fuck him over in alot of ways in the end, such as leaving unexplainable gaps on his resume if he actually does ever try to get a job. Not speaking from experience, but I'm guessing its not a good thing in the long run. I would rather be unemployed or work at mcdonalds than leeching off of society slowly fucking myself over

The guy is bragging about $213 a week and living in a bus.
I doubt he cares about credit, home ownership, or having a job that pays above minimum wage.

i was just curious because if you plan to "live" in a bus eventually you wont be able to get a drivers licence because they want proof of residence, not sure if it was always like that but yah

I have been in this boat. For over 2 years. Go ahead and hate. I have had some negative consequence from being unemployed. But I see it like this ..it is an insurance policy that you pay into from years of work. If something goes kaboom- then you get some credit back from what you put in for. Something like food stamps or being a politician is leeching off society.

Thats the way this country works. You can either choose to work hard and subsidize the poor, or choose to be poor and have your life subsidized. I agree its not fair, but Im sure not gonna waste my life working hard for other's benefit. I'd rather be poor and get my life subsidized.

Or you could work hard, physically or mentally, be comfortable enough to never struggle butm never be to tempted, live good happy productive and stoned, and let the fools quibble over the 213 a week lifestyle or the omg ima be a millionaire life style
Or you could cultivate the mind  pays more than 213 a week, you get payed in peace of mind and happiness. And money if your clever enough! 
I dont even remember the last time I posted in the pub I am as fuck.
Some people take advantage of the system, but its a really cool thing when it is there for people who need it. Even though this dude seems like a waste of space from what he has said, and from his....goals... but still, I would fight to the end for it to be there for those who need it. I think its good and I am sure we would all sit down blaze and laugh away in a different place, so quit hate-in on him already

I don't understand all of these assumptions you guys have made from my little rant up there, I also don't understand what you guys are thinking I was trying to say....
I said nothing about a desk job or...being a crazy catholic (?) or whatever the hell that one guy was talking about, I also did not mean to talk shit on your life style OP, im the biggest dead head you will ever meet me and you would have no problems and share good stories for sure~!
I said cultivate the mind. I dont wtf you guys are tripping on. That means learning. Living life. Having experiences. If you are so inclined, it might mean opening a book before opening your pocket. Either way, I said cultivate the mind, deal with it  

*edIT I just looked back at what I said and I did talk a little shit deadphan, shit I guess I such a wastey I did not even realize I did, sorry man

proly going back to work at the greenhouse i worked at least year in a month or so. i was makin up to 700 a week when it gets busy there. better believe id rather be chilling with the plants makin more dough than sittin around collecting a fraction of that. till then, gonna use this money wisely to get said bus together. fuck paying some rent only to be stationary and god forbid i cant find work down the line, have to be evicted. so long as i make enough to pay insurance, which on a bus will be cheap as fuck, and put gas in it, untill i convert to biodiesel, damn right ima accept my benefits. i didnt pay taxes for all my previous on the books jobs for nothing. o, and, i get taxes taken out of the unemployment as well, so, in that sense, im just as well a tax paying citizen as well. just sayin. i cultivate my mind more than your average bear btw. believe that. i read plenty. takin up the harmonica. just bought me a set of 4 in different keys. psyched on that. im involved in food not lawns, if u dont know about it look it up. i aspire to have my own mushroom among other things farm one day. trust that im serious about it. but ya would never know, cause some of yas already got me pegged from one measly post on a fucking internet message board. HAHA! yea, you could definitly say, i contribute plenty to society in other ways than just collecting a paycheck. hence why im not on these boards constantly like some of the lot of ya. not for nothing but some of yall are really silly makin me out to be a deadbeat when u dont know a thing about me. first off, im a great speller. when online, i could give a fuck. i just type away. second, ya gonna call me a deadbeat when the lot of you live on the fucking shroomery. lol. make me laugh some why dont u. right on. the shroomery is all! BACK TO YOUR REGULAR SCHEDULED PROGRAMMING. go find things you dont like about people and tell them why its wrong by your standards, before u know shit about em, because, well, youve got to be right about it all, yes? mmmmmaybe not?

I guess people forget we are in a depression as big as the Great Depression. Jobs are scarce and millions are already at their maximum 99 week limit of benefits and are being shucked onto the street.
Besides for every dollar the government pumps into Unemployment, people spend that rather quickly because they are needing food and necessities, generates 1.60 back into this failing economy.
I'm not advocating being a burden on their neighbor but when we should all pull together when push comes to shove.

Dude, unemployment benefits are there to help you maintain while you try and find a job.
Now either the OP should give up his lot-kingpin dreams and look for a fucking job, or make enough slangin' cheeze to pay his expenses.
But don't take MY money tour across the country.
That isn't what it's for, ya dig?
It sucks that if someone is against the abuse of unemployment that people assume they're against it. I completely support unemployment as a bridge between jobs, and recognize the need for it as such.
But it isn't a free ticket to pay your bills while you spend the summer doing whatever the fuck you want.

unemployment is an insurance policy that you are forced to pay into and like and any other insurance policy it pays you when certain criteria are met. That is what it is for. Their is no right or wrong about it and I say let the man cruise on his 213 a week if he wants. He earned it as he has already paid into it. Its mathematics, not morality.

No, but the insurance mechanism is based on the fact the most people don't want to live on half of what they have previously made for a year just because they can. If he wants to stretch it out for a year thats his prerogative and the system is built around that possibility.
Does it bother you when people collect for auto insurance?
