Businesses used to administer tests. The a 1971 Supreme Court decision ruled that such tests are illegal violations of the Civil Rights Act if blacks score lower than whites.

That’s what got businesses started on demanding college degrees (to ensure at least minimal literacy) but now even that doesn’t work.

Maybe Pizzarias should pay more.

There's a thought. Although minimum wage where I'm at is already $15/hour and on it's way to $18 soon. Of course they still can't get anyone to work.

How about get rid of welfare. Then the lines to apply for jobs will stretch around the block.

Get rid of welfare! But that’s how they pay for votes. Can’t have that.

Similar to the move to allow prisoners to vote. Bernie and others said not letting them vote was a denial of black rights. Admitting to something. Asian prisoner effect was not a controversy.

As “Joe Biden Says ‘Poor Kids’ Are Just as Bright as ‘White Kids’” 2019.

Fascinating. Could you supply the source?

Old ordinary searches about IQ are really getting deleted or sent down to search no.1070 on Google and others. Or “not many good search results.”

On that chart I would think Dr. Ben Carson would be on the lower right and the kid playing the dueling banjo in Deliverance would be on the lower left.

As for me “Stuck In the Middle With You”—by Stealers Wheel.

Job for people who can
- arrive at work on time
- arrive clean and not drunk or under any influence
- actually work
- not steal from us
- not spend all day on tiktok
- know how to add 1 + 1
- know which sex they are
- know how to speak English tolerably well

Probably not many applicants, in biden’s America.

sad thing is —dont get me wrong here, i am not the brightest bulb in the marquee— they wouldnt hire me because I “would get bored” and quit. That would be the justification after they read my resume’. I’ve been handed that excuse many times.

Be mighty interesting to see the Freeper distribution added to that graphic!

I can see it in my mind’s eye, it’s sorta all on the right side...

I can see the job interviews now, as Santino looks over the resumes:

What'd you go to college to get stupid? You're really stupid.

Next candidate, Fabrizio . . .

Fabrizio, come out in the back . . . Clemenza is going to help show you the ropes for your new job.

Offer $20 per hour. Look for retirees who need a part time job.
