>You are right, we agree partially. I definitely agree with the first sentence. When you talk about Social Security, are you talking about jobless benefits? Here Social Security is like your pension. I do not believe that jobless benefits should go on indefinitely.

Here's another one for you.

I don't think the state should subsidise low paid jobs.

Why should I help bad employers pay rubbish wages because they know the government will subsidise those workers.

In a healthy economy bad employers will rightly go bust because they cannot afford decent rates of pay and so cannot find staff.

In this (and quite a few other things) I do believe in a free market.
