In my subject line above I only pecked out the word “Jobs” three times. James Hoffa (the one we can find) is a lot more articulate that I am. In that speech he gave on September 5th, he said “Jobs” seven times in a row.
I agree we need jobs. Creating jobs is what all our politicians are making speeches about during this current never-ending presidential campaign. My question is can they really “create” jobs?
Sister Mary Rita taught me that only God can create something out of nothing.
I realize that some politicians act godlike but I must side with the politicians on this one. When I was in my little uniform, I would never have dared to quibble with Sister Mary Rita about any of her definitions but I am full grown now and am not near as afraid of her as I used to be. As our rulers are currently using it, there is a distinction in this use of the word “create” for this simple reason…
Our political leaders are not creating something out of nothing. They are creating something out of a gigantic mess.
I would become truly concerned if my leaders started saying these kinds of things in order to create more jobs...
- We need more wildfires (workers would be needed to put out the fires).
- We need a lot of rioting (workers needed to put out fires and chase the rioters and looters around trying to arrest a few of them).
- We need a lot more hurricanes (workers needed to set up emergency shelters and serve food).
If our rulers started advocating any of the above, Sister Mary Rita and I are going to have to make a trip to Washington, D.C. and have a talk with those guys.
Notice I did not say the catastrophes above would have created more jobs for reporters. We already have an unlimited supply of people with their unique “skills”.
Would I kid u?
