Confucious – “Stop repeating that canard” that the chareidim work but it’s just that the system is stacked against them! They are the ones who created the system by insisting that they won’t get a basic secular education, they won’t serve in the army OR A NATIONAL SERVICE PROGRAM (i.e. a chesed program!!!), they won’t vote for anyone who helps set up a realistic economical system but they will instead vote for parties that will give them “free money.” At the end of the day, there’s no such thing as a free lunch! Get a real secular education and follow the rules of the country you live in. Get a job that can actually pay your bills (just like the Chafetz Chaim did, Rambam did, Abarbanel did, Moshe Rabbeinu did, Yaakov Avinu did, Avraham Avinu did, etc.) our gedolim of our history didn’t take money for being gedolim and spreading Torah. They certainly didn’t instruct the Jewish people to learn instead of working and then live off of everyone’s charity and government handouts.
