Underdog Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 These stories were actually in the Farmville Herald, Dec. 3rd, 1909.That is exactly my point. Nowadays something called a "Vagrant Law" would not be politically correct and subject to legal challenge. How DARE we sentence a poor soul to hard labor for the crime of not contributing to society! I, for one, would like to see more of this. Then Rob might could hire some decent help. Having Rob as a boss has got to be better than breaking rocks.

GreggI'd rather work for Rob any day, he seems like an honest guy. I would like to see more that type of punishment as well, you know how many chain gang labor camps there would be? I'm sure it would make them welfare recipients who refuse to work get off their ass quickly.

Even an office job is manual labor because you got to type on a keyboard to produce documents and someone has to be the coffee slave. I couldn't do an office job, I don't want to deal with gossip that ain't my thing. Everyone tells me they see me in a suit and tie, yeah in a suit and tie owning my own business is the only way I see myself in an office type job.
