Balti - More or Less


I just read a statement from Michael Eric Dyson
who said the riots are a result of inequitable distribution
of capital.

result-of-an-inequitable-distribution-of-capital/

Yeah, sure, that’s what it is… and I thought it was about
what’s-his-name.

Let’s get to a solution.

Here’s a proposal –
These people just need jobs at $15/hr.

BAN any new automatic car washes!
Give these kids $15/hr. to hand-wash cars.

BAN any new robots!
Give these kids $15/hr. to build things by hand.

BAN the Internet!
Give these kids $15/hr. to hand-deliver messages.

Get rid of the traffic lights!
Give these kids $15/hr. to direct traffic.

Ban heavy machinery in these inner cities.
Create REAL $15/hr. shovel-ready jobs.

And the list goes on.

And here’s the chant I’d direct to them -
Finish school
or learn a trade.
Do these things
and you’ll get paid.

And -
“Everybody says they’re trying to get their piece of the pie.
They don’t understand that the world is a kitchen. You make your own pie.”
- Terry Crews

OK, I need a tongue in cheek font.

    Sounds good AKAFlack. Question is, will they take the jobs?

    The real riots will come when and if the government demands that someone (regardless of race/gender) stop receiving cell phone, food, utilities , housing and medical subsidies and that they now need to work for these benefits.

    It costs about $50K/yr to incarcerate an individual whether it is behind bars or in section 8 housing.

    That's more like $25/hour.

    The Chinese firewall also works here now? Or is it the NSA?
  • I had checked BreitBart as well but could not find the story.
