This is MAGA. Incompetence is their brand. I doubt they can make any of that happen efficiently.

Besides, just forcing them to jump through all those hoops on every applicant is already a win.

And drag out the interview, ask lots of questions, repeat questions, never make a move to leave until they order you to. Eat up the interview time of several applicants.

No, it’s not. Even if they catch on to it, and start working harder to weed out applicants, it will have caused a bottleneck in their system that will slow them down. And piss them off.

Brown shirts are so mid-20th century. Here in the future, Red Hats are where it’s at!

Plus Red Hat spelled sideways is Hatred, sort of.

Looks like ICE is reading this thread.

You need a job, so anything goes. Your only objective is to get hired, and you should do anything you can to achieve that. Corporations do whatever they can to brutally weed out applicants, so it’s perfectly fair to defend your application in any way you can, including flat-out lying. If they don’t check you close enough, and you get by and get hired, that’s on them.

Speaking of that, I’ve been saying that the Democrats should officially retire the term Republican Party. Hold press conferences, release press releases, etc. the Republican Party abandoned it’s long held principals, and have evolved into the MAGA Party. From now on, all Democratic statements and material will not acknowledge the Republican Party, because they ceased to exist. It is now officially the MAGA Party. And then make all their members adhere to that rule in all statement, interviews, etc. No exceptions, except when discussing history.

It will make the Republicans crazy, and take away their ability to claim that they are the “Party of Lincoln.” They are officially the MAGA Party, whether they like it or not.

Have you heard the latest in the Diddy trial?

They have already awarded a $250 million contract to build a 30,000 bed facility in Guantanamo.

For context Guantanamo currently houses up to about 250 people. The average maximum security prison hold 800-1200. The largest prison, in Angola, LA, holds about 8300. So the new prison in Guantanamo will hold almost 4 times as many as the largest prison, which is already several times larger than average.

This facility will be on foreign soil (Cuba!), far away from the prying eyes of the media, the courts, lawyers, protesters, family, etc. who do they plan on putting there, and for what crimes?

I’m an old musician, who remembers the role that musicians played in the Vietnam War Resistance. The current population music industry would never allow their artists to be so openly resistant today.

So I’ve been looking for music to revive, and create a soundtrack for the growing resistance. This might be a good one.

It’s also time to revive all those good old protest folk songs by Woody Guthrie and the like. Songs like This Land Is Your Land.

What, me worry?

Valid point. I added the word [just] to my post to clarify.

The bottom line is that they want to incarcerate as many people as possible.

What does a corporation do when they are already paying their people as little as possible, and replace as many as they can with AI? Imagine if slavery were legal, and they could force people to work for literally free?

The only legal form of slavery is prison labor, ensconced in the Constitution, so as long as people are in prison, the administration can rent them out to wealthy corporations. The corporations get cheap/free labor, and the government gets to maintain control.

In addition, that’s how they will treat people who require any public assistance, like Medicaid or Food Stamps. You will be forced to live in a camp, and work for whoever they tell you to work for. In return, you will get a bed, basic food, and minimal medical care.

Same with homeless people. Put them in a camp, force them to work, and declare the homeless problem solved.

No, they’re calling Alligator Alcatraz, because they think Alcatraz was a decent place. HitlerPig has even floated the idea of re-opening it.

Alligator Auschwitz is too close to reality, and they are still in the denial stage that they are following the Nazi playbook.

We’re talking about going to California, or perhaps another country, if anyone would take us.

If elections end, and HitlerPig becomes dictator for life, then the entire west coast will probably break off, and sign an alliance with Canada and Mexico, surrounding 2/3 of America with hostile territory.

The Constitution doesn’t [just] give us freedom OF religion, it guarantees freedom FROM religion. People can have any religion they want, the government just can’t allow it to influence government in any way.

Ever see one of those photos with HitlerPig in the middle, with a group of people all with one hand on his shoulder, all with their eyes closed, praying? And there in the middle front, is HitlerPig, who we all know is an absolute Sociopath, and doesn’t believe any of that crap.

Weak-minded fools.

And ALL those problems continue because there are wealthy entities willing to donate ANY amount of money to influence as many campaigns as possible. Right now, they see their re-elections as dependent on getting as much money as possible, so all their efforts are directed at the most wealthy.

But take money out of politics, and suddenly the ONLY election currency is every citizen’s single vote. Instead of appeasing a few very wealthy donors with important legislation that benefits only them at the expense of everyone else, they will be forced to support wide-reaching legislation that helps millions of citizens, in hopes of attracting their votes. Take money out of campaigns, and a wealthy person has equal political power as any other citizen - one vote. This is what the Founding Fathers were really talking about when they declared that all men were created equal.

Society has sunk to a level where living in your vehicle is acceptable as a valid housing option.
