we all remember the old joke about "intelligence", the laborer and the boss....
But this is 2021, time for modifications....
an evil capitalist construction company owner was watching a $15.00 an hour proud male digging ditches....on his 15 minute break, ( guaranteed for every half hour worked, due to Union regulations), the proud male cultivator asked, "why am I here, making $15.00 an hour, free healthcare, living in my subsidized housing, food stamp allocations, free tuition for my 12 children, while you're making less money and taxed more than I ?"
the evil capitalist replied, " well, Thomas its called intelligence".. "whats that?" asked Thomas
"Let me explain "said the employer on equality with his cultivator.
"Thomas, years ago, my name was Robert Smith. I graduated high school with a 4.0 GPA, I joined the United States Marine Corps, was in Officer Candidate School, commissioned as a 1st Lt. I served 12 years and was later admitted to College and earned a MBA.
Under the Clinton Administration, I lost my company, my home and my pride.
I changed my name to Mustaffa Hussein el-Banghi. I solicit work only for Federal contracts. I hire only undocumented visitors, my secretary is a trans woman who adopted 3 Asian teenagers.
I now have more work than I can control, I have cost overruns, shoddy worksites, never, NEVER meet deadlines , OSHA is forbidden to visit, and the Federal Government provides me with free lawyers."
"Yes, I am taxed, but I don't respond to summonses, lawsuits or threats to seize my properties because they wont".
"That, is intelligence"!
