chez11, the sweeping statement “frum yidden are legally prohibited to work” isn’t true. Anyone who’s been drafted and deferred cannot work, frum or not. This was my status for six months in 1982. I was allowed while deferred to finish teaching a course, but only by special permission and only because the course was for demobilized soldiers. Besides, your statement implies that only full-time learners are frum yidden and vice versa; I hope you didn’t mean it that way.
