<p dir="auto">NEW LAW COMING FROM CONGRESS -- AMERICANS WITH NO ABILITIES ACT</p>
<p dir="auto">WASHINGTON, DC - Congress is considering sweeping legislation,<br />
which provides new benefits for many Americans. The Americans With No<br />
Abilities Act (AWNAA) is being hailed as a major legislation by<br />
advocates of the millions of Americans who lack any real skills or<br />
ambition.</p>
<p dir="auto">"Roughly 50 percent of Americans do not possess the competence and<br />
drive necessary to carve out a meaningful role for themselves in<br />
society," said Barbara Boxer. "We can no longer stand by and allow<br />
People of Inability to be ridiculed and passed over. With this<br />
legislation, employers will no longer be able to grant special favors to<br />
a small group of workers, simply because they do a better job, or have<br />
some idea of what they are doing."</p>
<p dir="auto">The President pointed to the success of the US Postal Service, which<br />
has a long-standing policy of providing opportunity without regard to<br />
performance. Approximately 74 percent of postal employees lack job<br />
skills, making this agency the single largest US employer of Persons of<br />
Inability.</p>
<p dir="auto">Private sector industries with good records of nondiscrimination<br />
against the Inept include retail sales (72%), the airline industry<br />
(68%),and home improvement "warehouse" stores (65%) The DMV also has a<br />
great record of hiring Persons of Inability. (63%)</p>
<p dir="auto">Under the Americans With No Abilities Act, more than 25 million "middle<br />
man" positions will be created, with important-sounding titles but<br />
little real responsibility, thus providing an illusory sense of purpose<br />
and performance.</p>
<p dir="auto">Mandatory non-performance-based raises and promotions will be given, to<br />
guarantee upward mobility for even the most unremarkable employees. The<br />
legislation provides substantial tax breaks to corporations which<br />
maintain a significant level of Persons of Inability in middle<br />
positions, and gives a tax credit to small and medium businesses that<br />
agree to hire one clueless worker for every two talented hires.</p>
<p dir="auto">Finally, the AWNAA ACT contains tough new measures to make it more<br />
difficult to discriminate against the Nonabled, banning discriminatory<br />
interview questions such as "Do you have any goals for the future?" or<br />
"Do you have any skills or experience which relate to this job?"</p>
<p dir="auto">"As a Nonabled person, I can't be expected to keep up with people who<br />
have something going for them," said Mary Lou Gertz, who lost her<br />
position as a lug-nut twister at the GM plant in Flint, MI due to her<br />
lack of notable job skills. "This new law should really help people like<br />
me." With the passage of this bill, Gertz and millions of other<br />
untalented citizens can finally see a light at the end of the tunnel.</p>
<p dir="auto">Said Senator Ted Kennedy, "It is our duty as lawmakers to provide each<br />
and every American citizen, regardless of his or her adequacy, with some<br />
sort of space to take up in this great nation."</p>

<p dir="auto">I think you're supposed to take this with a grain.......er.......block of salt.  More like a stab at what the Government is doing nowadays, everyone who is a loser/lazy bum/no good/etc. instead of being killed by natural selection is padded with tax dollars because GOD FORBID anyone nowadays be labeled dumb or something.  In essence, the post is a joke, if any legislation like this was actually passed to this degree of stupidity I personally would lead the revolution against that government.</p>
