A lesson in irony...

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.

Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, asks us to "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.

This is a lesson in irony, but it's not the kind you think.

Brilliant observation, I think, though sure to never be acknowledged our elected officials. I guess LBJ meant well back in the 1960's war on poverty.

...and not one animal is committing fraud to get a free handout, at least not the four-legged ones.

I give handouts only after I receive this look:

Yes, we should put out some food stamps in central park, then we could hunt them like the fraudulent animals they are. Open season on the poor, 2 per day limit, quality pass for a mother of 4 or more. A trouphy could be any out of work male. J/k btw.

Ironic isnt it.

Looks like we need to stop giving Israel 3 Billion dollars a year so they won't grow dependent on us and learn to take care of themselves.
