This Country Desperately Needs to Reduce Unemployment — So Wait Until You Hear the President’s Reported Solution

Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko has an idea for dealing with the 24-percent unemployment in his country: a legislative ban on being out of work.

Lukashenko reportedly made the comments while discussing Belarusian police’s proposal to punish people who “intentionally don’t work.”

“We need to make these people work using any means we know and can handle,” Lukashenko said, according to the Moscow Times.

Sounds good to me. In this country we give them free money so they van play PlayStation, watch their flat screen tv, and talk to their friends on their free obamaphones. This so they are free to riot when they feel disenfranchised. How dare him expect them to work.

It's almost comforting to know that we're not in this unemployment dilemma alone.Too many people equates to not enough jobs apparently,whether they want to work or not.His plan is headed toward a Roosevelt WPA like program whether he likes it or not.

You have to offer actual manufacturing well paying jobs to get people off welfare, and they have to pay more than welfare in order for people to make the wise decision.

Well, that's not happening, is it?

Please review your local politicians in this realm and decide accordingly.

Nothing happening for the last 8 years is not something to vote for.
