If anyone else wants to make fun of, dismiss, or insult those with disabilities, then go ahead and tell one of us. We'd be happy to streamline this process instead of having to wait until you say some stupid BS.
Outpost wants to talk about this hitting close to home? Well he has no idea how close it hits to home for me, and likely most others on this forum and alive on earth.
And I bet none of us would scoff at them if they were offered to us.
To your point though, I agree that some are very much ridiculous. It can lead to a culture of entitlement and laziness. Having said that, I have spent a lot of time in both urban and rural France, and I can say for certain that the work ethic of the French is not unlike that of Americans. They just have better benefits.
It's all a question of national priorities. For the French, they have made it a point to emphasize more leisure time and a larger safety net at the expense of overall productivity and business opportunity. Americans have increasingly voiced their desire to edge closer to that emphasis, but we have a much smaller voice compared to corporations, and so we as a nation sacrifice leisure time and a national safety net to gain overall productivity as a more business friendly nation. More money in general, but less time to enjoy it.
