Politics

This is again in the style of complete and utter political incorrectness. Those of you with "a edgukashun" Need not apply. If your views are cemented in stone...Why the hell are you here?

At any rate, here's another rant for myself, my friends, any others that might drop by and have something to say

Politicians, don't you love them? They are in the only profession that doesn't feel a recession. Wow! Pensions after 4 years? AWESOME. The rest of us have to work DECADES for that kind of treatment. Must be nice. You know what I get if I show up 150 days out of 365? I get a really long vacation.

The shame of it is that in this day and age, when we have been through 2 world wars, travelled to the moon, found cures for tuberculosis and isolated the virus that causes AIDS...people are still starving. Not in Bangladesh, or Haiti or Somalia - RIGHT HERE IN TORONTO.

This kind of thing is criminal. There should be charges. I am the first one to point out that we are already a welfare state. I am also the first to point out that we try to control the welfare state with paperwork. Come on, really? They will make you disclose all your assets, look for paperwork you may not have because your ex-girlfriend / boyfriend is a wacko and won't let you have your stuff and then make you give you vague references as to why you are not approved. Woe betide anyone in this situation. Think the new airport scanners that strip you more than naked are intrusive? You have such another thing coming.

Shoe size, condom size, cant of your mother's left breast...nothing is sacred. You are now for all intents and purposes a criminal. You are a thief and a liar. Present economic circumstances notwithstanding, good people do not ask for support. They give money, not take it. Therefore, Mr whatever your name is...you are a reprobate of questionable standing. Oh and we will question you.

Let me illustrate...

"Mr. Dirtbag is it? You have a boat, we cannot give you any assistance until you sell that boat."

"It was heavily damaged in a storm and is half submerged in the water. I lost my job in the recesion and I can't afford to have it raised and restored yet."

"Storms notwithstanding Mr. Dirtbag. that boat is worth $10,000 dollars and as such we can no longer help you."

"I have tried to sell it, If you want it take it but I can't get anyone to buy it."

"Did you not have insurance?"

"That was the first thing to go when I lost my job."

"Well Mr. Scumsucking Dirtbag...It seems we have a pickle..."



Mr. Dirtbag is in some trouble, no?

When asking for help, you automatically forfeit your rights, freedoms and dignity.
Make no mistake, if you are naive enough to think that you won't be reminded of your place...you will.
In no uncertain fashion, you will be reminded, every step of the way that you are now chattel and your time is not your own. Regardless of how long you have been paying into the system, you are now dirt. There are no good, decent or honest people who have fallen on hard times, just the dregs of humanity that we are forced to by those left wing bleeding hearts (that we incedentally have been draining the blood out of too) to give at least a minimal amount of support to.

I believe that the pay scales of politicians needs to mirror the per capita gross national product, discounting the tallies from the top and bottom 10 percent of the population. Should there be a shortfall, they pay the percentages out of their personal savings. That way they know how our mistakes affect us. Should they be found to be doing things such as encouraging the emigration of low income workers, they should be impeached, stripped of all assets and made to work in the red light district with a tattoo on their forheads that says "Traitor"

Better yet. Stick them in a room with no breaks except for 30 mins for lunch and make them answer to people why they work all day and can't make ends meet when the government can write off billions of dollars for a scuttled subway project.

Gaaaaaahhh! (Incoherent growling)
