I posted this a few years ago. It's just as relevant today

God: Hmmmm. From my records, I see you hounded innocent individuals for months, ruined them financially and had no regrets, yet you took care of your family with your good salary and perks. This brings me to a quandary.
Bureaucrat: I was doing my job as best as I could.
God: Well, I need to do something. You'll spend the next few decades suffering the same anguish you caused. You'll suffer every night of lost sleep, deprivation to survive the financial disaster and feel every moment of dread of every individual. When this is done, I'll still have a quandary.
Bureaucrat: You mean on when you'll let me into Heaven?
God: No, whether I'll have lunch before, or after I turn you over to Satan.
In some ways, this is the very worst form of taxation and job creation.
ReplyDeleteYes it is, and they seem to be fine, since they receive paychecks regardless of the damage they cause. Like parasites, they suck the life out of their host, and perish, when the blood is gone.
