NO I honestly don't--maybe gettin some age on myself, I don't seem to lean towards all that negative crap--ALTHOUGH--I had my days back when. Lifes to short & I still contend that all we can do about anything, is set an example & keep our own back yards cleaned up. It seems to be kinda contagious. :)

That's what those programs are for. I'd much rather see money like that go to retraining someone for a new job rather than pay him to live forever. Teach to fish instead of giving fish and all that jazz.

I love that there are programs that offer a hand up and not a pure hand out.

but some people seem to depending upon who receives the training I guess.

That's unfortunate...and a bit sad.

I impression I have is it isn't the program, what type of training(as long as there are jobs in that field) or who gets it. It's when someone that is using everything that they can get yet professes the evils of them & seems to hate just about everything that the hand that's feeding them does, kinda like crapping where you eat or biting the hand that feeds you, do as I say not as I do, you get the drift. :sick:
