*Over five thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel, "Pick up your shovels, mount your asses and camels, and I will lead you  to the Promised Land."

Nearly 75 years ago,(when Welfare was introduced) Roosevelt said, "Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses, and light up a Camel, this is the Promised Land."

Today, the politicians have stolen your shovel, taxed your asses, raised the price of camels and mortgaged the Promised Land!

I was so depressed last night thinking about Health Care Plans, the economy, the wars, lost jobs, savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc . . . I called a Suicide Hotline. I had to press 1 for English. I was connected to a call center in  Pakistan. I told them I was suicidal.

They got excited and asked if I could drive a truck......

I think our lady PM may have the answer here.

The Australian Prime Minister, Julia Gillard, has announced she intends to make it more difficult to claim "Dole" and Social Welfare Benefits in an effort to drastically reduce the Welfare budget.

From next Monday the forms will only be printed in English !

Uncle Sam's fix for the Unemployment benefits that have run out...

Instead of re-upping/resupplying the unemployment benefits Uncle Sam has generously decided to purchase more beds for homeless shelters instead.   >:( >:( >:(  (fyi this is true according to the news!)
How Kind of them, bastards!!!
