NYC mayor de Blasio GUARANTEES a job to every inmate released from jail

[Text Drivers are Killers]

These won't be real jobs since most of these criminals are illiterate black thugs and unemployable. It's just more welfare.

Every inmate who leaves a Big Apple jail after serving a sentence will have a job waiting for him or her, under a new city-funded initiative, Mayor de Blasio announced Wednesday.

When asked why ex-convicts were being guaranteed work over unemployed residents who haven’t broken the law — including city high-school and college graduates — Hizzoner insisted the initiative, which will cost taxpayers $10 million a year, is a “smart investment for everyone.”

“Getting out of the cycle of crime and incarceration is in everyone’s interest,” he said.

Under his Jails to Jobs initiative, “transitional employment” — which is voluntary and lasts up to eight weeks — will be offered to an average of 8,500 ex-cons a year in an array of fields.

For some former inmates who lack basic skills, the gigs will be nothing more than paid job training, the city said.

[FUCK THE POLICE]

Everybody should be guaranteed a job. That's what a "right to work" truly means. No willing hands must be wasted by the pestilence of capitalism.

Wrong, you stupid fuck. One of the reasons for recidivism is that they can't find work. Offer them a job where they can obtain training, meaningful employment and a way to pay back their debts. The recidivism rate will drop. But, then again, you probably like your taxes going right back into housing them.

I think it's a great idea. Jail time will be more valuable than a B.A. in philosophy or African Studies.
It probably already is.
