It’s actually the word ‘approval’ I object to RR...that and the notion of the ‘great unwashed’ being a fitting description of the ‘unemployed’.

As regards the unemployed, or ‘great unwashed’ as you have seen fit to describe them, there are many reasons for people to be unemployed...amongst them are largely self inflicted causes and, conversely, some particularly tragic ones. I imagine we’re both bright enough and - on a better day - sensitive enough to be able to differentiate between them and avoid such stereotyping.
