If the choice was starve or work on public projects, many of today's lazy would be working. Many would work for private employers in jobs they now believe to be beneath them. It would have great boosting effect on the economy, just like Welfare reform in the nineties did.

A great man he is.

But with one political party destroying America for votes, and those voters accepting the payoffs, it seems we are doomed.

I'm not going to mention the people I have played golf with on 100% disability from their jobs.

I think it would reduce crime. Too much idle time. If people were working they wouldn't be bored into doing something they thought they could get away with.
