Good News Everyone
Despite the "heroic" efforts of more than three-dozen "brave" and fabulously wealthy Senators, almost all Republicans, to deprive those God has damned with joblessness, it appears that the Senate has 60 votes to reinstate unemployment benefits. I hope those of you lucky enough to be without a job for a long-time appreciate their efforts.
Undaunted these wealthy elites will now move on to their next holy crusade, preserving the Divine Right of Perpetual Tax Cuts for the "elect".
I'm sure our nation's major media figures and their six, seven, or even eight-figured salaries will report on this with all the journalistic integrity they can muster.
