Re: Political Jokes!

Limbaugh had a funny old fart call his show in 1994 back when "WILL WORK FOR FOOD" was just starting as a sign for beggars

"I saw one of those guys with a WILL WORK FOR FOOD sign.
"I pulled up and said, 'Brother I won't give you food for nothing.  But I got a pile of timber that needs chopped, and a chainsaw, and if you'll clear that for me I'll pay you $30.
"He said 'just gimme the $30 man.'
"I told him 'Well now St Paul says the laborer is worthy of his hire'
"He wished sexual penetration upon me, St Paul, and the horse he rode in on.
"But at the sight of a .45, he did repent."

The core joke of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is that of course no civilization would develop personal computers with instant remote database recovery, and then waste this technology to find good drinks.
Steve Jobs has ruined this joke.

"Why shouldn't he offer them $50, or why shouldn't he offer them the job?"

For he blaims the homeless for not working for money, but when he has money and a job to do he does not offer it himself. Thus, he proves himself that it is not all to be blamed upon the working people. People must be offered a chance to seize before they can make it themselves...

Re: Political Jokes!

A stupid story. Probably made up and copied & pasted from somewhere else. Way too over simplified.

What if there are no chores that need to be done at your house?
What if there are 10 homeless people?
What if the guy didn't know how to do the work?
What if he was injured or otherwise incapable of doing the work?

Don't get me wrong. I've voted for 3 different parties in the last 3 elections; our 'centre', 'centre-right' and 'moderate-right' (more-extreme-but-not-as-extreme-as-flint ) parties have all attracted my vote. But the difference is, is that our right-wingers are far more relalistic about their expectations. They encourage lower taxes, smaller government, responsibility, working however able while you are on a government benefit etc, but they also provide a real alternative for people who are unable to work, are out of work due to the fault of the company's bosses, etc, while not attempting to screw up the environment and not taking their inspiration from a fairy tale creature.... people like flint and balsz come across as so far-out to the right that to me they seem to be on another planet.

To even things up a bit, I've posted a nice little funny speech by an American republican in another thread.

Gondor: wtf, im not even mentioned. I was the glue to this family. Thats BS!
Econ: Gondor, if you were the glue, then I was the glue sticky thing that applies the glue.
(edit: I believe that's called the brush).
Torqez: Econ you forgot the part where you say "and I made Torqez delete!"

>>why did you not offer $50 to the homeless guys at the grocery store?<<

...He suggested that the girl do exactly that in reaching her goal.

[I wish I could obey forum rules]
