Bernie Sanders to announce plan to guarantee every American a job

[FakeNews]

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) will announce a plan for the federal government to guarantee a job paying $15 an hour and health-care benefits to every American worker “who wants or needs one,” embracing the kind of large-scale government works project that Democrats have shied away from in recent decades.

Sanders's jobs guarantee would fund hundreds of projects throughout the United States aimed at addressing priorities such as infrastructure, care giving, the environment, education and other goals. Under the job guarantee, every American would be entitled to a job under one of these projects or receive job training to be able to do so, according to an early draft of the proposal.

A representative from Sanders's office said they had not yet done a cost estimate for the plan or decided how it would be funded, saying they were still crafting the proposal.

Aren't the demoquack socialists getting tired of thinking up ways to raise taxes for "free" stuff? I mean, damn, do they need free tuition to learn something about finding jobs and how taxes work?

The plan probably is to incarcerate everyone and pay them to go out on road gangs to pick up trash. Poverty, drug abuse, and unemployment solved.

Of course the minority groups will probably start to complain about having to live in a cell with a white guy who poots racially motivated farts in his sleep. This will require that BernieGov fund and build segregated jails. At that point the minority groups will then complain that THEIR life sentences are longer than the life sentences for white guys.

Will I also be paid to attend my free college classes?
I mean, sitting through a lecture is a real chore.

In a world where automation is making the very concept of jobs and employment an obsolete concept? Really, Sanders?

Looks like the Washington Post has finally gone the way of The Sun and National Inquired. Poor Sanders. Anything for a hotdog.
