After the Administration's fiasco last week when they proclaimed outsourcing high paying manufacturing and high tech jobs was "good" for America, then quickly back-tracked on their promise of 2.6 million new manufacturing jobs this year, there was apparently discussion about (and I swear I'm not kidding) reclassifying fast foods workers as manufacturers because their jobs include "assembling" products such as hamburgers and the like.
Rep. John Dingell wrote this unbelievable letter in response. You MUST read all the way through! It's real - and SO funny!
