shtark bochur – should you learn full time if you have to take charity from people? Especially when that charity could be better served by giving to people who have no food, rather than people who could get a job?
One thing this generation doesnt seem to understand is that kollel is a LUXURY. I do not believe in supporting LUXURIES when there are mouths to feed. All men are obligated to learn and working doesnt remove that obligation.
JFem, as far as I am aware, the sunday paper is available everywhere (in inner cities as well). The $1 spent on the paper well covers itself and most grocery stores take the money. Granted its not a lot, but I could do it easily.
