* Just because you want a job, doesn’t mean anyone will hire you.
* No evidence making someone hungrier/sicker, helps them get/keep a job or get more hrs at work.
* Significant maj of ppl who’re poor have income from work. (1/8)
* Even among workers substantially employed, 1 out of every 10 does not earn enough to lift their family above the FEDERAL poverty line. These people will have to take TIME OFF WORK in order to submit proof that they are working. It’s the #KeepingYouFromWorkRequirement. (2/8)
