Why 10% Of Us Are Unemployed, Exhibit A

Hey Kids, I’m an ardent patriot and as American as apple pie, or the apple-flavored pie they serve at McDonalds.  That said, I came across the below video, not exactly flattering to Americans in general, and thought I’d pass it on.  For my friends who don’t feel like reading the Wall Street Journal, here’s a quick idea of why we have a 10% unemployment rate here in the US.

The scene is California; a fine young man from California is doing what many of our fine young men from California do: Playing with unnecessary toys whilst wearing a mohawk haircut and no shirt, at an indie rock concert…The children are our future, indeed!

    While it may seem like these guys are just screwing around wasting time/effort/etc, the tool is actually quite impressive, check this out http://www.handofman.blogspot.com/

    There are plenty of jerkoffs in California (and elsewhere, no doubt), but at least this takes some skill, intelligence, etc to produce.
