Welfare support and drug testing

[blue rider]

and those welfare queens too should be drug tested every week before they recieve their 50 $ cash payment and their food card

...he said the payment card could be spent only at food stores. Transport and medical costs would have to be paid out of the $50 cash payment, plus a disability allowance if applicable.

Young parents would also be able to earn "incentive payments" of an extra $10 a week for staying in education or training, another $10 for undergoing budgeting, and another $10 if they met all their parenting obligations including parenting education, enrolling their children with a doctor or Well Child provider, and enrolling them in early childhood education or childcare.

Was that on close up? When Mike Wanking was saying bene's should be tested because the govt was paying their wages, I wish that woman had suggested the govt also get TVNZ to drug test their staff.

Would be a 98% fail rate.

Since ya know that why not whip along and point out the ones that will fail? - save the expense of a drug test eh...

I am all for all employes of the government, including all politicians, for drug abuse, including alcohol and prescription meds.

How many of your colleagues would last if a test were held today?

After all, us tax payer are paying the wages of all public / civil servants.
In the end, it could be fun. No passing the piss test no job, dismissed on the spot. It would be hilarious.

surely a druggy that was dismissed because would not be recieving a penny under our beloved national government.

after all Mrs. Bennet is making sure Tax payers money only goes to those that deserve it. or are you saying this is all hogwash to appease the rubes and the unwashed masses, some sort of bread and circus, divide and conquer , so that the government appears as to be doing things.....heavens say it aint so....where are my smelling salts.

I refuse to comment on the grounds that I may incriminate myself.

I agree. If it's good for one it's good for all.

Just not me.

There used to be a clause in the WINZ policy, that those dismissed from their employment ... had an eight week standown before they were eligible for a benefit.

and what a fucking waste. people who do their jobs proficiently (excepting politicians and public servants here), people who cause no harm to anyone but enjoy a joint with dinner, and turn up to their jobs for 40 hours a week to keep the cogs of the govt turning, keep the government's boot firmly on the back of their necks..
good deal.

There used to be a clause in the WINZ policy, that those dismissed from their employment ... had an eight week standown before they were eligible for a benefit.

it depends on the reason. if it's "your fault" that you're not employed, stand down happens,(stealing, quit, drunk etc) if you're 90-day-dismissed, your contract isn't renewed, redundant etc, you're on the benny straight up (i think it takes about 2 weeks.. but muh. they do "back pay" you since your were "entitled")

There is a difference between "rights" ... and "entitlement". (google both to see the difference)

Funny thing is ... to change a political system .... you need to vote (Although there ARE more serious options, for changes to be made)

But of course this would mean being ... part of/IN the system ... in our society.

But we cant have that ... eh ... !!

Meh. If you don't like the terms of charity then choose to earn your own keep.

[Akzle]

Figgy.
you are a moron. do me a favor and click the ignore button on me. do not reply to my posts.


i hear that with the amount to roll out the drug tests they could put into kiwirail to keep those 200 guys employed...

Are they registered with the Charities Commission? Earn your own keep? Where are the jobs? Where are the well paid jobs to keep these people off any form of govt subsidy? Where are the "instructions" for the new system which could leave some parents without enough money to feed/clothe/provide heating etc... for their kids? Tis ok though, they are sub-human and therefore should be treated as such. Did I mention something about thoughtless self centered fuckin wankers? I've got a cap for ya fella
