OK, you really told me

Like I said, you picked the wrong one.
Just make sure you don't come crying to me when you lose your job, don't have anything to fall back on, and there is no other job to be
had.
Looks like you haven't read the very post of mine that started this whole back and forth. That is exactly what I am saying. I didn't go crying to
the government for help when my life got hard and I don't want them to steal my money because they think they know how to spend it on me better than I
do. I am specifically asking for the option to "opt out" Thanks for once again ignoring the very words I have written and rather replied to me based
on your personal prejudice.
If you read my ealier post in this same thread you will see that I in fact talked about the corporate welfare and the taxes that rich people
don't pay. I talk about the small person and such. Thanks!
Your right, I haven't read this entire thread yet, I have been too busy fighting off your attacks at me. Thanks! Maybe I should just ignore you so I
can catch up. I actually have no idea why I continue to write to you seeing how you have put words in my mouth, demonstrated you have not read my
replies to you, assumed my thoughts and character and haven't spent a second of your time examining my perspective.
Yes, I am glad there is a safety net for all of us and I gladly pay a small, very small amount to ensure that I can feed my family in case
something happens.
Then why can't you see the fallacy in your thinking. You must assume you are the enlightened person and everyone else is too dumb to take care of
themselves. If you see employment insurance as a good thing, why do you assume that others don't? I am simply asking to not have to fund a insurance
scheme that I don't see as a good thing for me.
My unemployment insurance is my savings, hard-work and ingenuity. Why should I be forced into a insurance scheme that I see as morally wrong (funding
through theft) and don't want to participate in? I have done just fine for myself without the "safety net" that people like you have forced me to
fund.
What happens when the unemployment insurance runs out and they don't have a job? Do you not see the problem with that? What of the millions of
american people who have taken unemployment, looked for a job, found none and their unemployment has run out?
They are made dependent on a system that they fund that later leaves them high and dry despite the fact that they fund it. Would they not be better
off knowing no safety net exist so they better prepare for an uncertain future? If the safety net was voluntary wouldn't it be better at driving
that point home to those that don't prepare for their future?
Whatever, your intentions are clear, you do not intend to have an adult discussion with somebody who sees things differently than you do, you simply
want to paint me according to your prejudice. Have fun with that, I couldn't care less. You simply are making yourself look very foolish and I have
no incentive to continue to feed the troll you are acting like.
ETA: It seems to me that you are just upset that one of the "needy" unemployed people you are so keen on helping doesn't want or need your damn help.
go bark up another tree.
