    Yep, I’ve been saying this forever. If you force the incompetent to work too, you’re just making things harder for the rest of us. Just pay them to sit at home and smoke weed.

      I dislike the association of smoking weed with incompetence. I’ve smoked every day for the past 15 years and have been just as much as a productive member of society as the next guy and excel at my job. That stigma hurts.

        I’m not saying the weed smoking causes incompetence, I’m saying we shouldn’t be forcing people into the job market that don’t want to / shouldn’t be there, and they should be free to do what they want in that unproductive time, whether that’s watching TV, writing, painting, shit posting, raising kids or smoking weed (or any combination of those things). I used this example exactly because of the stigma conservatives put on the ‘dole bludger’ or whatever they call them.

      Yeah, that’s not an awesome idea. They’d be better off picking tomatoes or something.
