Dole bludgers need prod: Nats senator

A Nationals senator nicknamed “Wacca” has used his first speech to tell dole bludgers that they should be poked with a cattle prod to get them off their butts and into the workforce.

The mere suggestion of violence against benefit recipients adds to the climate of hatred of the poor.

I’ll agree to cattle prodding dole recipients if we can Taser stupid politicians until they have some commonsense.

Seriously, “welfare” is a huge problem for “governments”. What to do? There is this increasing population which haven’t, actually, become part of the recent “pay fer yerself” notion. Difficult problem fer Kevin Rudd. Will be interesting to see how he handles it.

in any case, if anyone asks me how am, “supported” financially, always say that am part of the “Federal funds Rural redistribution scheme”.

They collect taxes in Canberra, and i spend the pittance around the countryside .. heh.
