Joe ‘Pags’ Pagliarulo weighed-in this week on younger Americans and the importance of work ethic; asking whether the next generation has the drive to improve their own lives or rely on federal hand-outs.
“Work ethic. I fear that the latest generation isn’t going to have any. I don’t think that you’re born being lazy. I think that you go with what you’re taught. We learn and adapt the best we can,” said Pags. “I had my first job at 12. I was cleaning fish tanks. I think I made $2 an hour... I was happy I could go and buy a Snickers bar on my own.”
“If you’re getting $1700 a month in unemployment... Why go and find work? There’s no incentive to go to work!” he added.
