Officials Say "Capes For the Unemployed" Plan Not Super 392
After what must have been an epic marketing meeting, a Florida unemployment agency decided to give 6,000 red capes to the jobless as part of its "Cape-A-Bility Challenge" public relations campaign. The capes cost $14,000 (not a bad price for 6k capes actually) and featured a cartoon character named "Dr. Evil Unemployment." As one might imagine, officials are calling for an investigation to be launched. It's a good thing there are an abundance of caped do-gooders without jobs in the area who should be able to help.

These guys aren't any different than a road construction company that the state pays for a job, but who get busted doing it badly and are ripe for replacement. Nice of you to give it your all, though.
