Pending legislation AWNAA

Washington, DC – Congress is considering sweeping legislation that 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. 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 non-discrimination 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 an excellent 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 so as 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 AWNAA 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 that 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 inability to remember “Righty-Tighty, Lefty-Loosey.” ‘This new law should be real good for people like me,’ Gertz added.  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 Senator Dick Durban (D-IL): ‘As a Senator with no abilities, 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 and a good salary for doing so.

  1. This is Bullsh_t! I spent 4 hours at the DMV a month ago and I swear they have to be higher than 63%. It was really pathetic and disgusting how screwed up the place was. Much worse than the Post Office.

  2. I think Britain beat America to that piece of legislative understanding, christ have any other Brits been to a Kwik-Fit recently or a BK or a cinema, doctors surgery, police station or railway station? You’ll see what I mean, I think we’ve achieved a 90% success rate with this scheme, the other 10% are made up of foriegn workers of very little to no talent….

  3. I spent 30 minute on line at the post office today because my postman didnt rig the bell. There were only two people in front of me! 30 god-awful minutes!!!

    The good news is we wont need a new president. Even bush and clinton made a cabinet in less time then him.

  4. And Congress is the best place to find people with no abilities. At last check, 99% of those in Congress have no ability–and the other 1% has marginal ability.

    Now, if they could only improve enough so they read legislation before they pass it…I know, this is just a pipe dream.

  5. April Fools, I get it, hope you do too by realizing this is a fake article. This is a satire news story that’s been circulating since the late 1990s and no person named Mary Lou Gertz of Flint, Michigan, exists: http://www.snopes.com/politics/satire/noabilities.asp. It’s a satire. I just want people to see it for what it is – a joke – and not an actual news story.

  7. What’s sad about this is, as I was reading it, i didn’t think it was too surprising. The government does such retarded bullsh_t for people will no life (mainly through well-fare) just so those idiots will vote for them, that this wouldn’t surprise me. Think about it, if a government official managed to parse the language so that he was presenting this idea, but it didn’t sound like it, so people didn’t realize how moronic it was, do you have any idea how many votes he’d get?
