[QUOTE="YukonGlocker, post: 2774323, member: 425"] Earned wages aren't subsidies. For most people making minimum wage, doubling their salary would place them at an income that is above the level required to qualify for govt. assistance. There will always be con-artists, but a story about a few people working around the system doesn't at all explain how the system is affecting the vast majority. Again, what is the prevalence of such behavior? Most jobs actually require you to be a work for certain number of hours per week, or you'll be fired...one can ask to work less, but very few companies/employers will entertain such ridiculousness because they'd have to hire more employees.
