"The people have a choice whether or not to work there."
This is an argument that is often used. But with 3,000,000 people
on the dole, how much of a choice is there? It's either: Work your
arse off for very little pay, or: Join the other 3,000,000 people
on the dole for even less money, and *try* to find a job that's any
better? OK. I guess that is a choice... why complain because
we're in a frying pan? After all, we could always choose the
fire instead...
