if someone decided that benefits could be cut, like wages, if someone didn't work an "appropriate" number of hours.

But if it's left up to people to choose, then yeah...why not....everyone needs to feel useful in some way.


I myself receive disability benefits, so I can't work, but I am able to contribute to society in a small way. I like to knit and crochet, and I've made preemie hats and burial gowns and blankets for one of the large area hospitals with a NICU. In fact, I have a box upstairs waiting to be mailed out.

I'm also thinking of making lap afghans for donation to area nursing homes.


Even if people can't work for pay, they can still contribute somehow...
