Gov. Christie: Nation turning into people sitting on a couch waiting for their next government check

18. It Seems Not Too Many Politicians Are Overworked

Years ago I watched C-Span and I would see someone speaking out on a topic and the "audience" was sleeping,chewing the fat with their pals,playing games on their laptop etc. They hardly put it a typical 40 hour plus work week,nothing physical. I would like to see Christie(among others) do what many have to do working minimum wage. You see them doing yard work,laying down patio bricks,working check outs. They wouldn't have to get this so called handout if business would cough up more then minimum wage.
I would like to see Christie and company work for such paltry wages and NOT get a bit of help from the gov't.
As for the dreaming,striving bit today's workers have their share of battle scars. They can strive all they want but if a company decides to go the cheaper route,fire them and hire cheaper they will do it. Just doing well at your job does not guarantee you a job today. Striving also seems to often be a waste of time when you see your jobs flying overseas. The only jobs that stay here are THEIRS and even when they lose one election they climb right back in. They know what it's like out there in the real world and they don't want to deal with it. What with their easy hours,perks,benefits what isn't there to like? So until he walks a mile in the common laborers shoes he should just shut up.
