The Americans With No Abilities Act (AWNAA)

WASHINGTON , DC
May 2nd, 2009

After relentless hours in her first 100 days working on the economy, President Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Congress are considering sweeping legislation which will provide new benefits for many Americans.

The Americans With No Abilities Act (AWNAA) is being hailed as a major legislative goal by advocates of the millions of Americans who lack any real skills or ambition.

"Roughly 50 percent of Americans do not possess the competence and drive necessary to carve out a meaningful role for themselves in society," said California Senator Barbara Boxer. "We can no longer stand by and allow People of Inability to be ridiculed and passed over. With this legislation, employers will no longer be able to grant special favors to a small group of workers, simply because  they have some idea of what they are doing."

In a Capitol Hill press conference, House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid pointed to the success of the U.S. Government in general and especially the Postal Service, which has a long-standing policy of providing opportunity without regard to performance. Approximately 74 percent of postal employees lack any job skills, making this agency the single largest U.S. employer of Persons of Inability.
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%). At the state government level, the Department of Motor Vehicles also has a great record of hiring Persons of Inability (63%).

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. 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 that promote a significant number of Persons of Inability into middle-management positions, and gives a tax credit to small and medium-sized businesses that agree to hire one clueless worker for every two talented hires.

Finally, the AWNA Act contains tough new measures to make it more difficult to discriminate against the Non-abled, banning for example, discriminatory interview questions such as "Do you have any skills or experience which relate to this job?"

"As a Non-abled person, I can't be expected to keep up with people who have something going for them," said Mary Lou Gertz, who lost her position as a lug-nut twister at the GM plant in Flint , Michigan due to her lack of any discernible job skills. "This new law should really help people like me."

With the passage of this bill, Gertz and millions of other untalented citizens will finally see a light at the end of the tunnel

Said the President: "I believe the same privileges that elected officials enjoy ought to be extended to every American with no abilities. 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."

Gene- Post this in the silent majority, I think it will be featured there! This is SOOOO funny but yet so scary at the same time since this is the path that most Americans seem to be going down, how about the lack of responsibility act and we certainly need to make an amendment about the entitlement act. You left a comment on my blog saying you subscribed to my blog and I was going to thank you, then I saw the part of your comment that said you write political posts. Well, you were from California so I had to wonder and come and check out what side of the line you are on! You just got yourself a new subscriber. I most certainly do not want to  miss any of your posts, right up my alley! Katerina
