I remember back in 11th grade I was supposed to read Invisible Man by Ralph Waldo Ellison. The assignment was for each student in class to read some book, then on a particular day we were going to have a 2 hour writing assignment in class on the book. So since I didn’t read it, I naturally got to spend two hours sitting at my desk attempting to look busy. I wrote some b.s. on the paper, knew it wouldn’t fool the teachers, and naturally as a result I got a big fat zero (0) on the assignment.

But it would seem that not reading the assignment is a Good Thing for our (out of control) public servants.

The sad part is, they’ll eventually receive a grade for their work, but it’s going to hurt us a lot more than it’s going to hurt them.
