The Brink discussion wnet along many tangents, welfare being one of them.
I found an old joke today that I thought would be fitting to the discussion.
A man walked into the local welfare office, marched straight up to the counter and said, “Hi, I hate drawing welfare. I would really
rather find a job,”
The person behind the counter replied, “Your timing is amazing.
We just got a listing from a very wealthy man who wants a chauffeur/bodyguard for his nymphomaniac daughter.
You’ll have to drive around a big black Mercedes,and the suits, shirts, and ties are provided.
Because of the long hours of this job, meals will also be provided and you will also be required
to escort the young lady on her overseas holidays trips. The salary package is $200,000 a year!
“The man said, “You’re bullshitting me man!”
The clerk behind the counter said, “Yeah, well, you started
it.”
