You were able to find a job, good for you. Not everyone can, but you clearly can't grasp that concept. By saying that people should go out and send out XX applications/resumes, or say they should join the military, etc is PROVING (so maybe you did prove something) that you can't grasp that concept.

So just leave it at that. No one is calling you any names, no one is doing anything except disagreeing with you.
You just called me an asshat and Dr.Phil called people who agree with Kevin minions. I don't see why it makes me an asshat because I've offered ways people can find jobs, since they are saying they are having a hard time. Earlier, people were making rude remarks to Kevin because he commented that people should try harder (or whatever he said) to get a job.

If you are given the option to join the military, send out x amount of resumes, do a job you are "over-qualified" for, or do something you don't exactly "love" or feel "passionate" about and you turn it down, then I agree with the article that SOME people (not all) are unemployed because they want to be-not in the sense that people wake up and say, "Wow, I love being unemployed," but in the sense that they have been given options, yet chose to ignore them. There are jobs out there. Some people just don't want to "lower" themselves to do them.
