In a bold new measure intended to address unemployment among young professionals, lawmakers from across the political spectrum agreed on legislation Tuesday to subsidize the cryogenic freezing of recent college graduates until the job market recovers.
(WARNING – tongue in cheek comment following:)
This needn’t be limited to jobless recent college graduates.
A cryogenic stasis in suspended animation with revivification can also be offered to aspiring utopians who are extremely unhappy with the non-utopian state of society.
When man-contrived utopia finally arrives on Earth, those in such a stasis can be revivified to live out their lives in utopian splendor.
This concept has a sort of ‘eugenic ring’ to it, doesn’t it?
Hope they also “freeze” the student loans these graduates owe. Otherwise the interest will be awful.
tsk tsk. Someone didn’t read the final punch-line:
[blockquote] When reached for comment, a spokesman for loan provider Sallie Mae said that educational loans taken out by graduates in cryogenic storage would continue to accrue interest indefinitely at 6.5 percent.[/blockquote]
Although this one was just packed with gems all through.
