What happens after six months if you don't have family willing to support you? You're on the streets?
- ajuc 9y agoThere are other social benefits unrelated to employement (for example for kids from poor families, etc), but in principle - yes. Now it's not so bad, you can find a job if you really want (it might be bad, but it's there). In 90s we had 20% unemployment and almost no social benefits. It was rough.
- anoncoward111 9y agoQuite literally, yes.
- mk89 9y agoIt's almost never the case. The way welfare works is kind of...buggy. You accept a job, do it for a couple of days, and that's it.
