How about this

It's a good start. Other potential jobs:
Washing windows.
Picking up trash.
Graffitti removal.

Any others?

Building good levees, not to be confused with the concrete walls the COE built in New Orleans. What were they thinking? The old CCC built the ones that the COE took down for the new and very expesnive concrete walls. The old engineers knew that a levee had to be a small mountain and that was what they built. I would bet that someone decided that if they built thin concrete walls, the land formally used for the old and wide earthen levees could be better used to make someone rich in real estate. Those old levees were wide enough to drive a car on the top of. Most of the floods those old levees allowed were when the water actually spilled over them. Then you got some water, but when the river or lake went back down, the flooding stopped. These new, expensive suckers collapsed totally. There was no controlling anything until the hole was filled up.

Other jobs people on welfare could do to help contribute instead of the current vampirism on society:

Janitors
Ditch diggers
Assembly line workers (kiss this goodbye, though.....no thanks to Clinton's NAFTA opening the floodgates for global outsourcing)
Greeter at Walmart
Toll Booth operator
Grocery bagger
McDonald's/Burger King/Taco Bell.....
Parking lot attendant
etc, etc

Of course, there are those welfare recipients who truly need the help and still endeavor to help themselves. On the other hand, heaven forbid should you propose things like making/helping people become productive, though. Half of the liberals in here posting their lives away are probably on welfare themselves.

Don't forget Bush's CAFTA...

I mean, lets be equal with the blame here...

Your desire for a 100% Republican rule suggests that you really like facism.

The people have chosen the Republican party. There's nothing fascist about it.

And they will unchoose them in 2008. :thumbsup:

Isn't that what you said in 2004 too?

Only about Bush. I blew that call but can you blame me for the turd we gave the nomination to? A polished turd is still a turd.

Originally posted by: Lithium381 I think a viable solution would be to hook up bikes to generators and make them produce our countries energy(seeing as how the oil thing might fall through, and much of the countries power plants are run on natural gas). Basically you don't pedal, you don't get your check, same with inmates in the prisons, they do nothing but drain our resources, they should pedal too, or no food! It's a completely unskilled job, anyone can do it! Comments?

yeah, one comment. ROFL!

Somebody here obviously never paid an electric bill The bikes would cost much more than the electricity is worth and this project would turn into an inefficient occupation project. (A bike professional can perform up to 1500 Watts for short periods...)

Nothing's wrong with unemployed people doing community service (they work in the parks & garden department of my city, for example), but that's not really a revolutionary thought.

And participating in this projects should be voluntary and come with a financial incentive. But it should be possible to live without it.

Just execute criminals. As for pedaling, well, you have to feed them or else they can't pedal. I don't know how cost effective that would be.

Spoken like a true fascist.
