He left several jobs for personal reasons (I.e. his decision to leave), he doesn't pay rent and occasionally pays some child support on one child (he has two). He could get a job in his field making good money, but he just doesn't want to.
And he lives in Minnesota. I'm sure if he were to support himself for once, and considering he's 45 and still doesn't I doubt he will,
It would be good to know what the jobs he left paid and what the reasons were for leaving. Perhaps the jobs didn't pay all that well and he had good reasons for leaving; we don't know.
What evidence do you have that he could obtain a job working as an attorney? Note that Minnesota has one of the nation's highest registered attorney-to-population ratios and that it isn't a legal mecca like New York, Boston, or Washington, D.C. Who do you think would hire him and why would he be hired over a promising new graduate or over an attorney with a few years of experience who doesn't have any black marks on his resume?
It doesn't even come close to being relevant here AT ALL - If you have law school loans and alimony you have to pay, YOU DO NOT HAVE THE LUXURY TO QUIT FOR PERSONAL REASONS.
This kind of retarded, neo-lib altitude just boils my blood. You're a fucking adult and if you gotta pay 500/mo for your god damn kids and another 500/mo for your debts, then you keep your ass working. It's called being a man. :|
No wonder this country is going to shitter with this collective responsibility bs. It's the society's fault that this jackass was fucking around in college, had a bunch of kids, didn't feel like working and now he can't pay for the fun he had. Discharge his loans, all the other people with college loans that are doing the right thiing (myself included) will be the ones paying for this fuckup. Bah!
