.....Elsewhere.......Pending Legislation - Americans With No Abilities Act Washington, DC - Congress is considering sweeping legislation that will provide new benefits for many Americans: The Americans With No Abilities Act. (AWNAA) is being hailed as a major legislative goal by advocates of the millions of Americans who lack any real skills or ambition. 'Roughly 50 percent of Americans do not possess the competence and drive necessary to carve out a meaningful role for themselves in society,' said California Senator Barbara Boxer. 'We can no longer stand by and allow People of Inability to be ridiculed and passed over. With this legislation, employers will no longer be able to grant special favors to a small group of workers, simply because they have some idea of what they are doing.' In a Capitol Hill press conference, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D) and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D) pointed to the success of the U.S. Postal Service, which has a long-standing policy of providing opportunity without regard to performance. Approximately 74 percent of postal employees lack any job skills, making this agency the single largest U.S. employer of Persons of Inability. Private-sector industries with good records of non-discrimination against the Inept include retail sales (72%), the airline industry (68%), and home improvement 'warehouse' stores (65%).. At the state government level, the Department of Motor Vehicles also has an excellent record of hiring Persons of Inability (a whopping 83%). Under The Americans With No Abilities Act, more than 25 million 'middle man' positions will be created, with important-sounding titles but little real responsibility, thus providing an illusory sense of purpose and performance. Mandatory non-performance-based raises and promotions will be given so as to guarantee upward mobility for even the most inept employees. The legislation provides substantial tax breaks to corporations that promote a significant number of Persons of Inability into middle-management positions, and gives a tax credit to small and medium-sized businesses that agree to hire one clueless worker for every two talented hires. Finally, the AWNAA contains tough new measures to make it more difficult to discriminate against the Non-abled, banning, for example, discriminatory interview questions such as, 'Do you have any skills or experience that relate to this job?' 'As a Non-abled person, I can't be expected to keep up with people who have something going for them,' said Ken Miller, who lost his position as a lug-nut twister at the GM plant in Flint, Michigan, due to her inability to remember 'rightey tightey, lefty loosey.' 'This new law should be real good for people like me,' Miller added. With the passage of this bill, Miller and millions of other untalented citizens will finally see a light at the end of the tunnel. Said Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL): 'As a Senator with no abilities, I believe the same privileges that elected officials enjoy ought to be extended to every American with no abilities. It is our duty as lawmakers to provide each and every American citizen, regardless of his or her inadequacy, with some sort of space to take up in this great nation and a good salary for doing so.' ..

Deadmandeadman, I'm sorry to learn about this because you won't be able to benefit from this legislation, being ept and all. I, on the other hand, have been called an idiot enough times to probably qualify. Yes!
Yeah, Deadman, I already called you out as technically proficient, even though there are some doubters.
Spike....I've never been called ept before. To be described as such by you gruntles me no end.
Bob....Rumors of my proficiency are being spread by a vast left wing conspiracy...
My doc grumbles about my being ever so slightly obese, but I don't think that makes me a vast left wing conspirator. At least you know how to get music posted on MOG and have a nifty avatar. I don't. But you did give me a giggle in my gruntle.
Im gonna go through all your playlists and steal all your music i didn't know about before and theres nothing you can do about it. Isn,t it great. Thanks
do AWNA that are already in high positions qualify for additional funding now?
I'm not sure....But i know the company i work for is way out in front on this.
Well, I think it's about time, and it's only fair. I mean, I think I was victimized much the same way at my last job interview. Maybe not verbatum, but they DID ask me something like, "Oh, do you have any job related skills?"
I mean, that IS a little personal, don't you think? And what if I do but don't know it?
Finally, some good news.
It's too bad that the people this will benefit won't be able to understand this, because they lack any reading skills. Someone better let them know, if this goes through. Leave it to Boxer to support this. Geez. I think she's one of the ones that will benefit from this, isn't she?
