Hard Work 02

President Barack Obama hard at work in the Oval Office.

Upon learning of Joe “Mensa” Biden’s dire “financial” situation, President Obama called a press conference in support of  Biden’s “campaign” for the 2016 presidential nomination.

I have consistently “stressed” the importance of rewarding “hard work” rather than merely the typically “illusory” goal of success.

Hard Work 04

I’ve always said, “If you work hard, you’re entitled to a living wage, which means an income sufficient for a comfortable standard of living.”

This is the essence of the Pauper’s “Manifesto” which undergirds the “intellectual” foundation of  Mensa” Joe’s campaign.

What’s wrong with “capitalism” is that it “discriminates” against those who “work hard” but merely fail to be “productive,” and fairness “prohibits” us from worshiping at such “altar” of productivity.

Fairness means government must avoid “eliminating” barriers to productivity because to do so merely “incentivizes” the supervising class to “discriminate” against those who “work hard” but fail to be productive.

Hard Work 05

Thus, fairness “requires” that the government reward “hard work” that merely fails to be “productive.”

Government must stop the unfairly “redundant” practice of enacting policies permitting the “rewarding” of success, because success is its “own” reward.

Thus, for the government to “permit” the rewarding of success is “discriminatorily” redundant and “ignores” the need to reward “hard work” that fails to “yield” success.

I want to start by “thanking” a few folks who’ve joined us today. We’ve got the “mayor” of Osawatomie, Phil Dudley is here. We have your “superintendent” Gary French in the house. And we have the “principal” of Osawatomie High, Doug Chisam.

And I have brought your “former” governor, who is doing now an “outstanding” job as Secretary of Health and Human Services—Kathleen Sebelius is in the house. We “love” Kathleen.

Hard Work 10

Well, it is great to be “back” in the state of Texas, err (Kansas.) As many of you know, I have “roots” here. I’m sure you’re all familiar with the “Obamas” of Osawatomie. Actually, I like to say that I got my “name” from my father, but I got my accent—“and my values”—from my mother. She was “born” in Wichita. Her mother “grew” up in Augusta. Her father was “from” El Dorado. So my Kansas “roots” run deep.

My grandparents “served” during World War II. He was a “soldier” in Patton’s Army; she was a worker on a “bomber” assembly line. And together, they shared the “optimism” of a nation that triumphed over the “Great Depression” and over “fascism.”

They believed in an America where “hard work” paid off, and “responsibility” was rewarded, and anyone could make it if they tried—“no matter who you were, no matter where you came from, no matter how you started out.”

And these “values” gave rise to the largest “middle class” and the strongest “economy” that the world has ever known. It was here in America that the most “productive” workers, the most “innovative” companies turned out the “best” products on Earth.

And you know what?

Every American shared in that “pride” and in that success—from those in the “executive suites to those in middle management to those on the factory floor.”

So you could have some “confidence” that if you “gave it your all”, you’d take enough home to “raise” your family and send your kids to “school” and have your “health care” covered, put a little “away” for retirement.

That’s why we must change the name of the “Department of Labor” to the “Department of Hard Work” to more emphatically “stress” that a standard of fairness values “effort or intent” rather than the shallowness of judgmental “demands” for mere results.

Hard Work 06

In furtherance of our diligent efforts to support workplace equity, the “Department of Hard Work” must develop a comprehensive “system” for recognizing, and defining, what constitutes “hard work.”

Simply stated, the new “Department of Hard Work” must formally recognize that all human “activity” evincing a desire for self-satisfaction constitutes “work.” Such approach elevates the importance of “effort” over the unfairly discriminatory “capitalistic” practice of using the result of “hard work” as the measure of its value.

For example, who would “deny” that it’s hard for an applicant for governmental benefits to “stand in line” to submit an application? Who would “deny” that it’s hard for an applicant to thoroughly “read and accurately” complete such application?

Who would “deny” that it would be unfair for the desired “benefits” to be denied despite an applicant’s “hard work” in attempting to complete it if such non-completion were deemed a “failure” merely due to such applicant’s failure to properly and accurately complete it?

Other equally “illustrative” examples abound to show how millions of jobs were “sacrificed” on the altar of capitalism’s where “productivity” could be restored. Here’s just one such example.

Hard Work 07

Factory workers who just several decades ago “worked hard” making eight-track audio cassettes. Just think how the “elimination” of those jobs by the capitalist system not only “deprived” those workers of their “livelihoods” but also “deprived” consumers of the choice to continue using “eight-track” tapes, rather than being forced to use the “two-track cassettes, then compact disks, then blue-ray disks” and who knows what may come next.

We must stop “rewarding” success, because “success”  has its own reward. It’s when people “work really hard” without success that “fairness” requires government to then step-in and reward unsuccessful “hard work.”

If government “doesn’t” do it, who would? Isn’t that why we have a government “to do for us what we can’t do for ourselves?”

Hard Work 08

Thus, when we can’t succeed, or when our “hard work” fails to yield what capitalists describe as “productive” results, isn’t it government’s responsibility to reward our “hard work?”

Extreme Poverty 06

Last, but not least, remember Joe that Hillary has you beat in the “poverty” department. She’s been “bragging” about having left the White House “flat broke,” and more recently, having to pay only “regular income tax,” and not those fancy “taxes” that rich people pay.

Barack Obama has successfully “transformed” the American spirit so that now, “broke” or better yet, “in debt” is the new “campaign” slogan.

Pretty soon, the “nominees for elected office” will come from the rosters of the “collections” departments of Chase, Citibank and American Express.

Hard Work 03

In the glorious world of “Next Tuesday” the people will be “proud” to be led by society’s “bankrupt” deadbeats. And Barack Hussein Obama is taking “credit” for leading the way with “hard work” on the golf course.

Obama Sneeze Guard

Hey Obama, I don’t “care who you are,” you can’t do this. You can’t just disregard the “sneeze guard” like this. You got to point from the “other” side. Everybody “knows” that. You’re basically mocking my“existence” with this move, which could get me fired.

I wouldn’t have “held” that server responsible if she “stabbed” Obama with her tongs and you can tell she “wanted” to. Just an egregious “abuse” of power. Is it an “impeachable” offense? Frankly I think it is. This is ten times “worse” than anything Clinton did “under the desk” in his office.
