It was just a matter of time. After the massive looting of the country's treasury by the parasitic ruling elite and their bag-men in Wall Street, having caused an economic collapse that weakened the proper functions of government and plunged the country into a jobs depression, we are now entering the next stage, which is serfdom.
Now some of the president's picks to help him come up with a "jobs plan" make sense. People like the head of Obama's Jobs Council, GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt, who's busy creating jobs--in China.
So of course, it makes sense that a natural progression would be to facilitate a good supply of workers to provide their labor for free, as reported by the Huffington Post today in the article titled: "White House Jobs Plan Might Let Businesses Train Unemployed Without Having To Pay Them."
Labor advocates worry that participants in Georgia Works are less trainees and more employees working for free.
"We understand that state departments of labor are looking for creative ways to get people into jobs," said Judy Conti, a lobbyist for the National Employment Law Project, a worker advocacy group. "We understand workers are desperate to get their foot in the door. But there's a right way to do it and we think Georgia's doing it the wrong way."
And they have the gall to claim that this disguised exploitation is a "training program."
Conti said NELP has interviewed workers who've participated in the program and found that their training was more like work. "People really aren't training for new skills," she said. "They are doing things they already know how to do."
Conti said a better jobs program would look more like the stimulus bill's Emergency Fund for the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program. Economists at the liberal Center on Budget and Policy Priorities estimated the fund supported 240,000 jobs before Congress let it expire in 2010.
Where would it end? The rich fucks purposely destroy the economy by massive looting and thievery, plunging millions of people into joblessness and economic calamity. They get away with it scotch-free with the help of bought-off government officials and corrupt "regulatory agencies."
They get tax breaks for shutting down factories and companies in the U.S. and shipping jobs overseas.
And we get the shaft. We are left holding the bag. We are left to bail out corrupt Wall Street firms.
And then we have to work for free... When will it end? The thievery. The exploitation. Crimes committed with impunity. WTF.
