“There’s just a lot of people in this country that don’t want to work, period,” Rep. Virginia Foxx said during a hearing about people who work too much.
House Republicans held a hearing Wednesday throwing cold water on President Joe Biden’s plan to give more workers overtime protections.
Even though the hearing was about employees who work long hours, the GOP chair of the House Committee on Education & the Workforce took a moment to argue that too many Americans don’t want to work at all.
“There’s just a lot of people in this country that don’t want to work, period … and want other people to take care of them,” said Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-N.C.).

Great.....and what exactly does that have to do with people working overtime and not getting paid for it?
I'm guessing she means "those lazy bums won't even work overtime without extra pay"
Obviously, people who want to work would work for free. /s
