Thema: Re:You tried to pull a rabbit out of a hat and came up with a skunk.
(V): I'll be glad to answer that question. But first, where did that question come from? I mean, you posted it in response to something I posted and I'm not seeing a logical connection. I posted a joke.

It was a JOKE.

a JOKE!

A joke is a phrase or a paragraph with a humorous twist. It can be in many different forms, such as a question or short story. To achieve this end, jokes may employ irony, sarcasm, word play and other devices. Jokes may have a punchline that will end the sentence to make it humorous.

A practical joke or prank differs from a spoken one in that the major component of the humour is physical rather than verbal (for example placing salt in the sugar bowl).


Purpose

Jokes are typically for the entertainment of friends and onlookers. The desired response is generally laughter; when this does not happen the joke is said to have "fallen flat" or "bombed". However, jokes have other purposes and functions, common to comedy/humour/satire in general.




So I'm just trying to figure out how you came away with the question when CLEARLY what I posted was ONLY ment to be a joke.


a joke


Did you not get it? I can explain further if that will help.

Artful Dodger: I did ask you if you thought it was ok for the government to support low wage employees via food stamps and welfare instead of the companies paying what people need to live on.

But I guess, if US firms did... more jobs would go abroad.

I stated a fair point about the government subsidising American businesses at the tax payers expense, yet you want all welfare and food stamps gone.

If so, then the subsidies in terms of support to the low waged has to end as well.

How?

"I think it's a little too early yet for the president to be attacked by a rabbit," cautioned a veteran Chicago Democrat wise in the ways of Obama. "But it's close. Real close."

Anyone who thinks Obama is safe from a rabbit attack has forgotten what happened to President Jimmy Carter In 1979. Carter was attacked by a swimming rabbit, and the subsequent "Killer Rabbit" stories helped destroy his presidency. It led to the election of Republican Ronald Reagan in a landslide and an unprecedented economic revival.
an unprecedented economic revival.

There are eerie similarities. Like Obama, Carter was at that point where he was constantly viewed as weak and ineffectual. His fellow Democrats had lost patience with him. Liberal writers who once fawned on him had turned against him.

And like Obama, Carter foolishly left the White House for a "vacation." Carter went home to Georgia for some fishing. Once his canoe hit the water of a pond, a terrible thing happened. A rabbit swam near with anger in its eyes.

So, you are happy for companies to pay low wages and for the government to pick up the tab via food stamps and tax credits?

(V): Yeah, like the unions in Detroit that fought for a fair wage and managed to unemploy all the workers when the factories shut down. Bleeding the complain dry. That's the ticket.

Thema: Re: eliminate all forms of welfare and food stamps
Artful Dodger: So.. at last the companies will have to pay a fair wage to low paid workers instead of the government subsidising the American economy.... a fair point.

As for claim support to many, but you won't see the point!!

Thema: Problem Solved!!!
eliminate all forms of welfare and food stamps and offer the unemployed minimum wage jobs pedaling stationary bicycles hooked up to electric generators, solving our budget, poverty, obesity and energy independence problems all at once - but these are not the jobs either the President or his supporters have in mind.

..... Half the time I've seen his show the point seems pointless.. other times, history seems to be rewritten under the guise of Bill, Fox and Murdoch's current agenda as decreed by those who are now friends of Murdoch.

... but the propaganda machine carries on.. well at least for now. If the charges stick as it seems they will. The Murdoch Klingons will have to kling elsewhere.
