Superhero capes for the jobless

Maybe we really do live in an alter-universe that is someone's comicbook universe.  How else do you explain:  Job center blasted for giving capes to unemployed

----------
Florida officials are investigating an unemployment agency that spent public money to give 6,000 superhero capes to the jobless.

Workforce Central Florida spent more than $14,000 on the red capes as part of its "Cape-A-Bility Challenge" public relations campaign. The campaign featured a cartoon character, "Dr. Evil Unemployment," who needs to be vanquished.

I love my brothers-in-law's comment:

Ever been in one of those meetings where someone says, "I know how to help the unemployed. Let's give them superhero capes!"


Idiocy is embarrassing...
