With Obama of all people selected for eight years in our White House, how can anyone think that having no abilities is a disadvantage?

As long as the paperwork to apply will fit on a post card and can be filled out using a Crayon, it may just take off!

They’re right, 50 percent are sorely lacking in ability or the drive to succeed. When times get tough, so many run away.

Alternatively, how about the Americans with Abilities Act?

That is, since Obama has nationalized student loans, and he doesn’t care about debt, why not forgive all outstanding student loans? Young people going from deeply in debt to just poor, would mean they could start off like their parents did, and what they earned, less taxes of course, would be theirs.

This would mean they could get married and start families earlier, and face a future other than loneliness, childlessness, and despair.

Wasn’t that the Civil Service Act of 1883? Made civil service hiring based on “merit” but also made civil “servants” all but impossible to fire?

I read the first three paragraphs to my lovely wife as she was having her first cup of coffee. It was an amazing sight to see the outrage boil up in her eyes. After listening to her rant for five minutes or so, I informed her that it was satire.

She admitted that it was a bit too close too something that she could see Obama and this administration pulling.

So a very WELL DONE for a good piece of satire.

Sounds great as long as I don’t have to interact with the non addled.
The Constitution says thou shall not be humiliated so I will stay home and wait for my weekly checks to arrive in the mail

You’re cutting in on John Semmens’ action. Good job though.

Americans With No Abilities = Progressives

I received it via email with no link. It was scarily close enough to reality...

Subsequently another friend sent me a link...

Private-sector industries with good records of non-discrimination against the inept include retail sales (72 percent), the airline industry (68 percent), and home-improvement warehouse stores (65 percent).

What about Walmart's great contribution?!?!

You should credit the originating source, even if you changed up parts of the article.

Sounds like socialism/communism in all it's glory!

This is one of the funniest most insightful things I’ve read in a while. Someone should ping the objectivist slash libertarian pings with this.
