I propose all welfare recipients walk on a treadmill hooked to a generator that offsets our energy needs.
Brilliant idea!
We’ll connect the treadmills to the internet, and not recharge the EBT card until the prescribed number of watts have been generated for that month.
HHS/Ag Dept can hire 15,000 employees to administer this, and we’ll let $2 billion in contracts to politically connected contractors to handle the software and programming.
GENIUS!
