Anyone see King of the Hill last nite? |

It was the one where Hank hired the kid who turned out to be a drug addict....and he went to the Rehabillitaion center before he was actually fired....so he had to keep him on board...... man it was hilarious.
I love the quote from the guy who was representing the kid....he said "Its illegal to fire this man....he's a drug addict"....
America....how sweet it is.

1. yeah, it is funny, but... |

seen it before...but,
to me, this is an example of how the population is being manipulated by popular culture that is essentially right-wing propaganda.
yeah, you can say i am over reacting, but the premise is a lie, particularly in texas, (hank hill's locale). you can be fired at any time for any reason, or no reason at all, in texas unless you happen to be employed at one of the very few businesses that have a union contract.
but people will subconciosly, almost subliminally, be left with the idea that businesses are being forced to retain drug addicts and other dead-beats.
yeah, i know it is only a cartoon, and only humor, and only the really stupid would get their information from such, but...
