How about this one?

I used to have a job with the contractor that maintained the machine on the president's desk in the White House. That is the machine that controls the jobs in the U.S. Its meter goes from 0 (total unemployment) to 100 (full employment). (Doesn't EVERYONE know that Amendment XXI of the Constitution mandates the president to provide full employment?) The president can move the joystick a half inch or so, and 200,000 lose their jobs; move it a half inch the other way and we have a labor shortage. While working on the machine, I "accidentally" opened one of the files on the computer in the Oval Office and found a bunch of emails. These emails were written by President Bush. He sent them to his corporate buddies, ordering them to lay off a certain number of his employees and to make sure that they couldn't take their health benefits with them. He seemed to take a great deal of pleasure in their pain.
