Once in a while, we just have to stand back in awe of our government:
The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture is proud to be distributing the greatest number of free meals and food stamps ever - to 46 million people.
Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Dept. of Interior, asks us to "Please Do Not Feed the Animals." Their stated reason for the policy is that "the animals will grow dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves.”
Thus, this ends today's lesson. Thank you.
This could come only, from our government.
Excellent observation. BIIG irony.
America is the only country where the “hungry” typically weigh 300lbs. each.
I was with a chick once. There was a bum at the intersection and she reached into her purse. I said “hey, don’t do that, you are going to teach him to associate people with food!”
She was enraged.
Give a man a free meal, feed him for a day.
Give the man food stamps, teach him to mooch for life.
