This Is How Insane The Government Is Getting!?!?!

Okay Sonny Purdue(governor of my state Georgia) wants to close schools down this up coming monday and tuesday to offset the upcoming "GAS SHORTAGES".

Georgia produces the STUPIDIST students in america. We are dead last in education.


Purdue wants to save money/gas, so what does he do? Screw the kids close the schools.

This is how insane the government is getting. First off the government isn't responsibile for the setting of prices of products or services(the last time this happened he froze profits). Second after that whats the next solution? Let the kids get even more dumber Close the schools.

The "Kimmer" on WGST read a company e-mail that stated employees could bring their kids to work as long as they did not interfere with WORK!

Unbelievable! He could save more gas by letting all the state road workers stay in the shop for 2 days instead of riding around doing nothing.

It's amazing how incompetent the people who run our country are. I'd estimate that 80% are just plain stupid. Is it that bad in other countries?

I guess Gov Purdue must also have been a product of Georgia Education. That may explain things.

Again, those greedy oil companies!!!!! Now they are destroying our education system as well.

I'd say that less than 1% of the people who run this country are stupid. It's not that they are stupid, it's that they're too smart. If purdue does nothing then his approval rating will go down, well he doesn't want this so he'll do anything to make it look like he is solving the problem. problem is that he's creating bigger problems.
