Volcano Monitors

A modest proposal from Volcano Monitors in response to Bobby Jindal’s incredulity at their inclusion in the stimulus package:

The best solution for the problem is not to try and keep people working, but to let the people who still have money keep it. Then it will be easier for the starving and homeless people to know who to rob. Then the poor can be shot in self-defense, quickly eliminating the problem entirely with a bare minimum of economic depression and loss of life.

Them volcanoes are hardly a problem, though, yah? Other than that one time in Indonesia when one of them popped, generating the loudest sound in recorded history, 100-foot-high tsunamis (which hurled some boats 50 miles inland), blood red skies in Norway (7,000 miles away), and a shockwave that rounded the earth at least 7 times (measured on equipment in use 125 years ago.)

Nah, there’s no sense in getting prepared, especially since we hardly see natural disasters anymore.
