Youth and Unemployment: It's the TV's Fault

Newt Gingrich got himself in hot water recently for saying that some kids have no habit of getting up for work on Monday because all their role models are drug dealers, etc. Well, I think he might not be right about that. Unemployment in our nation's youth may be the fault of that old lightning rod: television! (That's why they had those antennae thingies: they were secretly lightning rods for attracting blame and scorn from parental groups and the government!)

Just look at what's on TV nowadays! All the reality shows about employment have monstrous bosses treating their underlings with ridicule, contempt, scorn, etc., and employees are abused and tortured for everyone else's entertainment! (Like Cake Boss, Hell's Kitchen, The Apprentice, etc.) And that's what kids think having a job must be like! So it's no wonder they don't want to work! And it's all the TV's fault!

See? If only the government would go back to blaming everything on the TV again, everything would be fine and all our problems would be over and solved! (It's true!)
