According to an article in USA TODAY this morning, the demand for taxpayer-funded burials — let’s call it “Cash for Coffins” — is on the rise. On the heels of the glowing success (NOT!) of the federal government’s “Cash for Clunkers” program, perhaps the two programs can be combined — as shown in the photo below — in a demonstration of “government efficiency at work.

I think the bigger picture is, The governmentwants us to pay for all the coffin’s they will need after they kill is all off, it’s like Hitler did not want to spend money on all the bullets so he just gased the jews, well the rich white people people are the jews, it will just be a slower death more painful death. Does anyone else see that, or is it just me?
