Jobs which pay better than the dole (after taxes) often require drug tests.

Yeah, they left out DC. Most notably the House and Senate.

I’ll bet there’s some overlap with the worst 50 cities in the United States... betting on lots of democrat ‘office holders’ in these places...

I’ve been told Colorado has attracted a lot of pot-head bums and I guess Pueblo has been badly affected by that.

I looked up the party of the current mayor of these cities. 7 are democrats. I can’t find the party of the other 3 but 2 were endorsed by the democratic party.

And where I was able to find a list of mayors, they’ve had a democrat for 15 to 50+ years.

Not a surprise, just wanted to confirm my guess.

What? No Helena, AR, Pine Bluff, AR, Memphis, TN, Birmingham, AL or Jackson, MS? They should all be in the top 10.

Washington DC is in a class of it’s own:

People who don’t work and have jobs.

Actually when it comes to the number of hours actually put into the job - being in the office. DC is one of the hardest working cities around. Now no where did I say the jobs were worthwhile or should be done. All I am saying is people in the office putting in the hours. Maybe they’re having orgies, smoking dope, and/or doing nothing?
