Yes, I think it was a pretty dumb idea to provide the rubbers with paper wrappers. What, did they save 1 cent per condom? Kudos for passing them out, boo for being overly cheap about it. Not like the city was cheap with regards to the new stadium. It's all about those priorities around here....
Cost of providing decades of free HIV/AIDS drugs to DC’s welfare recipients: tens of thousands of dollars. Cost of 100 trustworthy, brand-name condoms from an online store: $17.99.
Why is it that the welfare state has to be run by idiots? Can’t it at least be run by smart people who have no common sense? I realize that the schools here don’t teach basic math skills, but can’t public health jobs require them anyway?
at least its not an exchange program like with hypodermic needles. besides, everybody knows that multi-year welfare veterans often rely on their abilities to accidentally procreate as income. the prerequisite education is cheaper and plentiful. yee haw.
Made in China, you say? I bet they came with little fortunes: "You're knocked up."
ReplyDeleteIt's all part of their ingenious plan to sell more toys.

ReplyDeleteOh for Christ, they were made in China, they're probably lead-laden.
ReplyDeleteWarning to DC citizens, do NOT LICK THE FREE CONDOMS. ...or allow your children to lick them.
