Subject: Irony
Once in a while we just have to stand back in awe of government.
The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture,
is proud to be distributing the greatest amount of free Meals and Food
Stamps ever –
46 million people now receive Food Stamps.
Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S.
Department of the Interior,
asks us "Please Do Not Feed the Animals."
Their stated reason for the policy is because "The animals will grow
dependent on
handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves."
Thus ends today's lesson in irony.
