Free Dress Shirts for Job Interviews to Fight Unemployment
quote: Last week, ShirtsMyWay.com contacted President Obama and his staff with a proposal to help fight the rapidly growing unemployment rate hovering over 8.1%. The idea was to take a small portion of the bailout money or stimulus package and use it to give out free dress shirts that are well suited for job interviews.
Interesting...
Do they honestly think thats going to help?

Zomg! Socialism! Giving free anything will lead to dictatorship and dissolution of America.

The problem isn't that there's no nice shirts for people to where to interviews. It's that there's no jobs to get interviewed for.

I've got 6 Burger King shirts in my closet that I won in an online sweepstakes. First 6 people to my house get free lawn-cutting shirts. I'll have the mower all gassed up.

You know, i think this is a brilliant idea, actually. If bums had nice clothes no one would know who the bums are. This instantly solves the problem of having to look at disheveled street people but it also keeps them from asking for money. You can't rightly ask for money and expect a handout when you're wearing a suit. So, yeah, this just might be the answer to our bum problem.

I think it depends on your type of "bum problem".

I completely and utterly agree. They deserve every bit the leadership they chose - not just USA but every country who has choosing rights.

If nothing else, this is a pretty unusual method of fighting unemployment. If it helps, that's great.
