Feel the Bern: Sanders Wants Feds To Offer Everyone a Job
Legal Insurrection is reporting on Bernie Sander’s latest utopian experiment. A program to give everyone who wants or needs one, a job working for the government for $15.00 an hour.
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.
A rep. for Sanders was quick to point out that they have not yet figured out how to fund it ow what it would cost.
A New Ed “Flash” Larkin Inspired Scratch Game From The NH Lottery?
In the fall of 2009 UNH Professor Ed ‘Flash’ Larkin was put on paid leave for exposing his genitals to a young lady and her mother in the Milford Market Basket Parking lot. (My earlier remarks here.) As of October of last year, the plan was to let him go, but it looks like the Union and an arbitrator have stepped in and Flash still has a job.
Ed “Flash” Larkin has, to the best of my knowledge, continuously collected his $87,375.00 per year UNH salary, since the incident.
Under the terms of his probation, as reported in the Sunday Union Leader, he will remain on the UNH staff for another three years before being permitted to meet with students. That restriction prevents him from teaching during that time. We can only assume that a University that pays full salary during an investigation does likewise when they are told they cannot terminate said employee. Without knowing any other details, this amounts to five years worth of salary at a state supported university, to a German Language professor, for what? Exposing himself in public.
Talk about a government jobs program. Show some strangers your “little professor” at the grocery store parking lot and we’ll give you $436,875.00 over five years.
But you get forced out of your job if you just expose yourself on Twitter? I bet Anthony Weiner is pissed.
