Please Do Not Feed the Animals


My old friend, colleague and one-time boss sent me this.
Today's lesson in irony.
The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is proud to be distributing this year the greatest amount of free Meals and Food Stamps ever, to 46 million people. 
Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, asks us "Please Do Not Feed the Animals." Their stated reason for the policy is because "The animals will grow dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves. 
Thus ends today's lesson in irony.
Just think how dependent people would be if we weren't into the fourth year of Obama's economic recovery.  Thank you John!
