Biden speak like the disgusting capitalist pig he is. Your right to life comes from working for the rich. It is actually unhealthy for the human mind to show up at a soulless bullshit job that makes an already rich asshole even richer, and extra evil when it is starved wages.

Capitalism offloads the costs of its crises onto the poor, those least able to cope with them. The capitalist crash + 2020-21 imposed full poverty on millions who had been "near-poor" before. nbcnews.to/3eFp77R

Why did he even say this?
Replying to @marwilliamson
He's responding to criticism by the Republicans ... I have a better idea ... let the marketplace handle it ... pay them more than they're getting on unemployment ... and they'll come back to work ... how's that!

What's a "suitable job"? That better mean a job that pays at least equal to what you're making on unemployment.
