Where to find rented property that doesn't "cost the earth"? Are you being serious, I mean really? Just surf the web and although it may not be somewhere you don't fancy then so what?
Living off the back of these oh so hard treated poorly paid worker diddumses? If people with a few Bob didn't put their gelt at risk by creating employment where would those workers even have a job and in any case every risk must have an element of positive ROCE.
Your parents and mine Todgy, and indeed myself were living in
different times with different societies to the present day situation
and l believe that l had better and more opportunities to drag myyself
upwards, for instance l managed to get an apprenticeship when
apprenticeships were really apprenticeships with 1day a week at
technical college with examinations etc? And then,as you say l
was pepared to relocate for better money, and every day l searched
the newspapers for better jobs!
But having said that, the jobs and opportunities were there as uk was
supposedly rebuilding after the war! I dont think this is the situation
now is it?
The problem is made worse by the fact that if people are born into
a culture of dependancy they tend to stay with that culture and it
becomes a way of life! I strongly believe that the present crisis
should be used to press gang all healthy recipients of benefits into
farm work etc to earn their keep, and withdraw their benefits untill
their contract has finished? Maybe some of them could then break
the habit of loafing?
