I agree with you. Some people ruin it for others and stay on this until their benifits run out. They never make any effort to really look for a job until its to late. Then they expect the government to bail them out again. Motivation is needed. Sometimes a good kick in the a-- is all it takes. The key word here is SOME people need it not all.
