Great sign. Thanks for posting (and the pings to the thread)!
Yes, for me it was between that one and this one for best "keeper" paragraphs of the entire article.
Think of public service for what it really is, a secondary form of welfare, in which workers pretend to work and the government pretends to pay them just like in the old Soviet Union! I mean, if it werent for government jobs, all of these non-essential personnel would be lounging around on their porches, drinking beer and firing unregulated handguns into the air or at each other or, even worse, at us unable to deal with the vicissitudes of life and therefore deserving of our public charity. Without public service, politicians such as Ted Kennedy and Chris Dodd would have been just another couple of Irish barroom horndogs; Governor Moonbeam, Jerry Brown, another Buddhist moonbat; and Robert Byrd a humble white-sheeted follower of Nathan Bedford Forrest. Public service gave these men jobs real jobs and meaning to their lives. And you malevolent capitalists want to take it all away.
Thanks bitt.
thanks for ping. Wickedly fun to read although truth of it stings. Hate that this is what our great country has come to.
Trotsky and Lenin would be so proud of these folks.
From a Wisconsin teachers' rally. Really.
Oh, man!
