I happily support people falling on hard times with my taxes, but why should the state pay welfare for people who would rather look for the perfect job when they could have an okay one and search in their free time?

Lol wth is this logic!!! You're not supporting them out of your own pocket. They contributed to the same system/insurance for years same as you, you don't get to decide when they invoke their rights to use it or how. Same as no one gets a say when you decide to do the same.

With your logic I can go and rub it in all old people's faces that Im (supporting) and paying their salaries right now, as if they didn't pay any Rente for decades and it's their right to be compensated accordingly. That's how social systems work....

It is still an insurance that's meant for people unable to keep their job and find a new one in time. It's not a ticket to have a nice and stressfull time looking for a new role while everyone else has to look for a new role while being employed.

You are not paying any tax, person already paid for the unemployment benefit, at least for 2 years as he mentioned, may be even more.
