    Why are we not allowed to criticise the Dole?

    Censorship from the libtard SJW snowflakes isn't it?
    Or maybe it's tired and there are many already?
    Or gets populated by FG'ers angry at FG for their lot and looking to blame the sick and poor?
    Take a pick :)

    I wasn't being serious. The Dole thanks you.

    Lower all social welfare payments by 15%. Ring-fence that money and put it into social and affordable housing. That would benefit society much more.

    He prefers 'Bob'.

    What about poor and sick people who have a home?

    Because Bob worked tirelessly for 30+ yrs for the good people of Kansas.

    Gave every blood sweat and tear to the job.

    He would've been President too if the Clinton mob hadn't rigged the election in collusion with the Cubans.

    How about we lower it by 15%, put a fence around the money and let everyone fight for it.
    Hunger Games meets WWE.

    That archery training will finally have a use.

    Absolute revisionist bullsh*t. All Bob dole cared about was abortions for some and miniature American flags for others.

    good luck with that, the high majority of the professional protestors you see picketing for free public everything are also professionally unemployed who blame the bankers and government for everything and think throwing more money at **** public services and taxing the rich is the solution the housing crisis

    the day that gets passed is the day pigs fly

    They are doing better than those poor and sick people that don't have a home

    They'll be given a 2kg block of cheese every 3 months.

    How about 3kg every 2 months and some tea.

    Ah Tea party

    Raising the SW payment is fine, it’s the length of time that people are allowed lounge around on it the problem is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,610 ✭✭✭✭kneemos


    Dunno why people are down on the sole. Pensions are a much bigger expense.

    Nope, not necessarily. They likely have mortgages to pay, which the dole doesn't cover.

    Whereas the non home owners ger rent allowance or HAP on top of the dole.

    I know someone who chooses not to work.
    She has a council flat, 30 seconds walk from St Stephen's Green.
    Has a trained skill, and could work in the morning, but will not.

    Or raise corportaion tax, introdcue a wealth tax, abolish tax incentives on REITs but yeah let's target those on very very low incomes for the 'benefit' of society.:rolleyes:

    Apparently everyone on boards knows someone that "chooses" to be on the dole.

    I'm sure it's a very fulfilling life sitting at home all day doing nothing, would love to do it myself.
