The Americans With No Abilities Act(AWNAA)
WASHINGTON, DC (AP) - Congress approved sweeping legislation which provides new benefits for many Americans.<br><br>The Americans With No Abilities Act(AWNAA), signed into law by President John Kerry shortly after its passage, is being hailed as a major victory by advocates of the millions of Americans who lack any real skills, abilities, or ambition.<br>Roughly 50 percent of Americans do not possess the competence and drive necessary to carve out a meaningful role for themselves in society, said Kerry, a longtime AWNA supporter: "This is why many of them voted for me."<br>"We can no longer stand by and allow People of Inability to be ridiculed and passed over,"" declared President Kerry. "With this legislation, employers will no longer be able to grant special favors to a small group of workers, simply because they do a better job, or have some idea of what they are doing," said Kerry.<br><br>President Kerry pointed to the success of the US Postal Service, which has a long-standing policy of providing opportunity without regard to performance. Approximately 80 percent of postal employees lack job skills, making this<br>agency the single largest US employer of Persons of Inability.<br><br>Private sector industries with good records of nondiscrimination against the Inept, include retail sales (72%), the airline industry (68%), and home improvement warehouse stores (65%). President Kerry has also set an example, personally selecting hundreds of Non-abled people for top government positions, including many cabinet-level jobs.<br><br>Under the Americans With No Abilities Act, more than 25 million middle-man positions will be created, with important-sounding titles but little real responsibility, thus providing an illusory sense of purpose and performance.<br><br>Mandatory non-performance-based raises and promotions will be given, to guarantee upward mobility for even the most unremarkable employees. The legislation provides substantial tax breaks to corporations which maintain a significant level of Persons of Inability in top positions, and gives a tax credit to small and medium businesses that agree to hire one clueless worker for every two talented new-hires.<br><br>Finally, the AWNAA contains tough new measures to make it more difficult to discriminate against the Persons of Inability, the Non-able and the Inept, banning discriminatory interview questions such as, "Do you have any goals for the future?" or "Do you have any skills or experience which relate to this<br>job?" and "Are you awake?"<br><br>"As a Non-abled person, I can't be expected to keep up with people whohave something going for them", said Mary Lou Gertz, who lost her position as lug-nut twister at the GM plant in Flint, MI due to her lack of notable job skills.<br>"This new law should really help people like me."<br><br>With the passage of this bill, Gertz and millions of other untalented citizens can finally see a light at the end of the tunnel. <br><br>Said Kerry, "it is our duty as lawmakers to provide each and every American citizen, regardless of his or her adequacy, with some sort of space to take up in this great nation."<br><br><br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rollin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/roll.gif ALT=":rollin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><table border=0><tr><td><embed align=left src=http://www.thzclan.com/avatars/ezice.swf menu=false quality=high bgcolor=#000000 width=217 height=166 type=application/x-shockwave-flash pluginspage=http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/dow ... <td><table border=0 style='Filter: Shadow(Color=#BB1403,Direction=255)'><tr><td><span class='usertitle'>XMEN Iceman [DTM]<br>Founder and Leader of the Base Tribes XMEN Clan<br>Proud member of the Dragon Talon Mercenaries teamplayers Guild<br>Citizen of New Fenecia<br><br>You weren't much of a challenge - T2 bot after killing Iceman<br><br>- click on avatar for links - no, not sausage links!</span></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></p><i></i>

Re: The Americans With No Abilities Act(AWNAA)
The hilarity in this scares me because I fear for its realism. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><br>Proud Member of the<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>The Templars</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br>Proud Member of <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>XMEN</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br>Proud Sportscaster for the<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>TsN - The Team Sportscast Network</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br>What we do today, Echoes in Eternity!<br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>ROMA VICT</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>
