Hopefully you have not faced the horror of life without curry in which existence is boring, probably political, and always full of commercials for food you would never want to eat (e.g. fried chicken at Chili's).
The only way to create a palate flatter and less interesting than that of Texas is if you're born in a McDonald's ... and never leave it. The Texans discovered chili powder and decided that was it for cooking. However, someone also came up with the idea of chicken-fried steak so they won't last long enough to spread their silly ideas about food anyway.
The lament of the absence of Indian food was related to Lotho and this exchange happened:
(Ed: using curry paste is cheating!)
Hey, for curried food, I will cheat like (fill in name of NASCAR team you hate) at the Daytona 500!
Patak's can be found at Amazon ... if you don't mind going to a bookstore for your food market and it's ok paying twice what it should properly cost plus paying for shipping to get it. The Silas wants curry but not that bad, mates.
(Ed: sure you want it that bad!)
True enough, matey, but I ain't willin' to get flogged for it!
Update: some content removed due to contest of wages Amazon pays its workers. It may be much better than its reputation suggests.
(Ed: no way I am eating hot curry!)
Heya, Cowboy Bob, are you a fookin' Texan or some sissyboy who mostly eats beans and only gets the good stuff when his mommy cooks it for him??
(Cowboy: who you callin' a sissy, you carpetbaggin' Northern Yankee? Colt .45 and I will tell you all about sissies!)
Oh gee, look at that. Did you get that at Amazon, honey?
Kisses.
Note: Patak's also has a Mild Curry Paste.
(Ed: for Texans?)
That's our guess, matey mate.

You flog Amazon unjustly.
Amazon opened a distribution center here. Before that happen low skilled factory workers average wage $10. With the opening of Amazon paying $14/hr with 8 hours of overtime. Using 4 12hr shifts. The employees make about 40K/yr. Enough to replace the total welfare package.
And only working 4 days per week.
Now most of the factories in the area have had to match the wages.
So in this area Amazon has made a major impact of the entire economy. Include the fact that Amazon will hire felons that increases thier impact dramatically.
Surprised and must correct that. Everything I have seen has flogged him for poor wages.
Huge error - definitely must correct.
OK, did that.
No worries that is such a rarity these days.
I believe efforts like this are why the Fight for Fifteen is sucessful. Because so many companies are already heading there.
Hell even Walmart is moving to $11 this year and I believe $14 in two years.
If we dont change welfare to follow it will be quite possible to transition many from the dole to work.
PS this may be just a regional decision but it works here. The hiring of felons is I think a bigger windfall. As most offenders are burdened with such huge fines and little job opportunities that they are driven back to the failures that caused the incarcerations in the beginnings.
Being the Saint that I am, I am now setting up a transitional living in one of my houses and using those people to do my repairs and remodels. All that I ask is thst they stay clean and keep the place clean and organized.
But that is a drop in the bucket and completely off your topic
I don't see welfare as meeting any concept of a minimum wage but rather basic survival which is not the same thing. Working should get you something better or, as you say, what's the point.
It's not a drop in the bucket for the people who get touched by what you do. It may be a wee bit silly to denigrate a beautiful thing you do but none of us were ever all that good at self-promotion. Who knows if you get saint stripes but this sure won't hurt when they consider it.
Welfare passed emergency help years ago and now has,become a lifestyle. The point would be self esteem and it would be part of the journey not the destination
Deeds are best unpromoted. Usually the receipents smiles are all that is needed. Sometimes promotion is to cause awareness and spread the results
Dunno if non-promotion goes all the way to total radio silence or we would never hear about Mother Teresa.
No need for a welfare editorial as we see there are problems and it seems clear those who validly need benefits may not get them and others who should be working are not. I'm sure no disagreement it could save a bundle if it were only run better.
