Something to laugh about?!?

Is this something to laugh about? I've laughed at stuff like this in the past
and seen that it actually made a difference in the company's life.

Hmmm...I suppose we shall see.

Guilt of the liberal elite - Let's give the poor children a laptop so I
don't feel so guilty
about my $400,000 house.

...and this laptop won't even give them any workplace skills - teach a man
to fish, you know?

Spend the money on vaccines, education programs for the parents, sanitation,
anything else,
but this is a joke, but it's not very funny.

I wonder how long it will take to figure out how to remote detonate a bomb
with one of these things.

Nope, an optomist. I am sure they have that already figured out.

Know it well. Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day....teach a man to fish
and he'll make a $1B company out of it and use it to starve thousands.

Again, precisely what I was thinking. What is wrong with these fuskers? Everyone
knows one can't think straight on an empty stomach.
