I think it is impossible to lump all of the unemployed into one group. Some people are looking for a job and strugglign to find it, but there are others who are just lazy and would rather complain about thier situation that do something about it. As someone who works in employment at a company that hires people with no experience every week (call center), I can say that people come through trianing that I hear talking about how they have no money and are waiting on government support for gas or food or whatever it may be. Then they just stop showing up. No reason given, no call made to say why they are ending their employment, they just stop. We have people who make over 40k a year on the phones at my company and these people who complain non-stop about money troubles walk away because they are too good for the job or they don't like it. I just wish I could get into their heads regarding that decision. (Sorry for any errors, posted in a rush.)
