Heh - unemployment in Brazil
I love the spirit in Brazil -- its President worked himself up from poverty and is refusing to do the usual corrupt South American Socialist bullshit that too many other nations are doing.
This story caught my eye -- from the
San Francisco Chronicle who of course, adds their own lefty slant:
Jobless benefits Web site adds insult to injury
It's a shameless thing to do in an economic crisis. Jobless people seeking information about their benefits on the Brazilian Labor Ministry's Web were forced to type in passwords such as "bum" and "shameless."
Labor Minister Carlos Lupi is apologizing for the situation � and he blames a private company that created the site's security system.
I know that there are people who are genuinely unable to find work and there are also a lot of untreated cases of mental illness on the street but I can't stop chuckling about this -- PC or not PC.
