I can understand a government's
need to get unemployment down and that there may be a large number of the
British population on benefits that need to be encouraged to get back to work.
I agree, something constructive needs to be done to change this. However, I do
think our political classes are out of touch and our flowery British language, especially
when spoken by English Brits, leaves us hamstrung by political correctness. We
are not allowed to say certain things without being branded despicable or vulgar.
Because of this we use tremendous understatement when trying to say things. We
go around the houses and use obscure words to present a meaning to something in
the hope of not causing offense. We have also learnt to use such words when
trying to introduce something we may want played down – in this case; WORK
PROGRAMMES – in reality; slavery.
WORK PROGRAMMES are government
backed schemes to force unemployed people back to work without wages. In short,
this is compulsory and the employer that allows you (the work programmer) to
work in their corporate industry, shelf stacking; cleaning toilets etc for free;
is doing something for the good of his citizens. Work Programmes are championed
by the high profile corporate industry bosses and for good reason - free
Labour.
There are also areas of our
country where entire communities are destroyed by lack of industry and people
may need to move away from their areas to find work. Of course this is easier
said than done. There are so many variable things that bring high levels of
unemployment to areas. Many of these peoples have had their lives and cultures
changed by industrial closures. Expecting them to starve is stupid. They will
not and will not allow laws to inhibit them from living life. Many of these
people are like urban nomads. Sometimes underhand dealings are the normal way
of life on some of the isolated and run down estates across the county. They
can be near affluent areas too, but become isolated areas where we do not like
to go. We dismiss them and then find it strange when these unemployable peoples
treat us with the same contempt.
I assume this is the reason our
UK Government has introduced these Work Programmes for unemployed people and
often these schemes are meant for the good, but are not revised properly. We
have big corporate industries getting free labour under the pretence of cherry
picking small numbers of people for permanent employment after many weeks of
free labour. Many good meaning people who champion the UK Government Work
Programme argue that it is a positive thing. Less then 2% get work.
I have listened to the many
arguments and whilst I understand the governments need to tackle mass unemployment;
Government Work Programmes are open to exploitation of unemployed people.
I understand that many people on
benefits might be exploiting the system too, but many of these people will find
ways to avoid doing slave work. They know how to buck the system and know
slavery when they see it. They'll go out and rob or commit other crimes knowing
the law system cannot afford to keep them locked up for costs in excess of a
thousand pound a week. We live in a society where money talks and principles are
heard but then take a long walk.
The genuine unemployed people are
being forced to do slave work until they learn how to turn bad and thieve as
well. They adapt. Disrespect the system, because it will not respect you. I know this is a
terrible and wicked thing to say; but I have more awe for the criminals who
would find illegal methods to eat than subject themselves to slave traders,
because this is what WORK PROGRAMMES are. No matter how many pretentious words
they string together to present this diabolical scheme.
Help the community by litter
picking the areas, clean graffiti, repair guttering within the community – the parks
the waterways – the uneven pavements, but not free labour for private corporate
industries. It sends out a horrendous message. The rich get richer and the poor
get poorer. WORK PROGRAMMES are slave labour – pure and simple. I honestly have
more respect for the villain who will not buckle to such treatment and will
thieve and commit crimes not to go into slavery. If local authorities and government pay this meagre benefit, use the labour or work experience to clean the estates these people live in. The way WORK PROGRAMMES are used by wealthy industries stinks!
No matter how well meant
Government Work Programmes are; it is another name for slavery. It is wrong and
should be abolished to find another way. I admit, that I do not know how this
might be done, but I would strongly argue that millions of foreign unskilled
workers have been brought into our country and exasperated the situation to
horrendous levels for many Brits who do want to work but strongly object to
being forced to work for up to six weeks free of pay and then be dis-guarded
for a new batch of free workers. Our political classes allowed this
circumstance to come about in the first place.
These Work Programme, free workers
are got rid of after so many weeks and then the next rota of Government Work
Programmers are forced to work for nothing under the pretence of they
might get a job. If they do not comply, the meagre benefits are stopped. Give
them a proper wage and allow them to stay. Don’t make them work overtime if
they don’t want too when in paid work. Many of us do not want to do more than
the proper hours per week. There is no wrong in this. Now they are being forced
to do these things without pay because one person has sway over so many. This
is very wrong and no matter how well worded people try to present this issue;
it still is slavery. Once again our British ruling classes are using our
wonderful language to understate exploitation and slavery with words like WORK
PROGRAMME.
I now pray for the trade unions
to rise again, though I think it is unlikely. I hope so many people throw in the
towel and turn to crime and then the government will realise it cannot imprison
them all. Better still, get this government out. They live on another planet
and have no concept of what it is like to live on the many run down council
estates throughout Britain. They are places where decent people look to the
thieves for cheap affordable commodities, where drug dependant people shop lift
and turn up with delights. And then they all become villains together. This
type of culture is enforced on them because it is a better choice than complying
with unfair rules.
You might think this world is
bad, but if you have to live in such a place, it is a whole lot better than
slavery on Government WORK PROGRAMMES. The more this unfair scheme is allowed
to continue the more people will say; “what’s the bloody point.” They learn to
adapt in dreadful ways. Why respect a government that will not respect you? This
new type of world has been evolving for decades. Most of us know of such places
from the outside, but more and more are being drawn into it.
Some might welcome it with open
arms because our political classes offer nothing better than WORK PROGRAMMES
(SLAVERY)
