“There’s just a lot of people in this country that don’t want to work, period,” Rep. Virginia Foxx said during a hearing about people who work too much.
House Republicans held a hearing Wednesday throwing cold water on President Joe Biden’s plan to give more workers overtime protections.
Even though the hearing was about employees who work long hours, the GOP chair of the House Committee on Education & the Workforce took a moment to argue that too many Americans don’t want to work at all.
“There’s just a lot of people in this country that don’t want to work, period … and want other people to take care of them,” said Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-N.C.).
Imagine taking 100k moneys to an investor. A year later you check in and they say “Great news, you have 100k moneys as of Jan 1st.” You tell that person to piss off and you take your money elsewhere. They lament, “No one wants to invest anymore!”
If it doesn’t pay to work, why be miserable AND poor? The next time you hear someone say no one wants to work just tell them to shut the fuck up.
