This is something I’ve thought about before as well. Except with things like “interior designers” or shows where emaciated women compete to be photographed in magazines.

However, there are some things that would be better funded with public money than padding lamp posts because people are retards.

How about taking that money and increasing teacher salaries?

I tend to listen to Adam Carolla fairly often in the morning and generally, more than not, the things he says make sense to me.

For example the issue of food allergies being such a big deal with kids these days. All you hear are stories involving little Timmy being sent to the hospital because he fell victim to some sort of peanut allergy or similar ailment. Carolla rightly points to this as a clear indication of a GOOD SIGN.

Clearly the “outbreak” of food allergies and reactions in kids in this Country means that we’ve officially run out of REAL problems. We should be thankful. Peanut allergy eh? Think to yourself a moment about all the times you’ve heard of children suffering from food allergies in other, less fortunate countries. Lots of food allergy epidemics breaking out in Africa, right? Coming up with anything? How about that terrible lactose intolerant community in Bosnia? The examples are just so vivid, right!?

Yeah, me neither.

if Britain has taken the time to analyze the need to pad their poles so clowns don’t drift into them then things are going alright there.
