Obama, Romney offer differing advice to help India with blackout problem
7/31/2012 8:05 PM Matt Rock -
The nation of India received fresh advice on how to solve their electrical blackout crisis earlier today, when both President Obama and his 2012 presidential election rival, Mitt Romney, offered their own takes on how India could get the juice flowing.
“The United States outsources jobs to India, so why can't we outsource our electricity, too?” Romney asked, speaking only with PTP and still dodging all other reporters after his recent string of major international gaffes. “We put a man on the moon allegedly, so I don't see why we can't send electricity to India. And maybe if we send enough of it overseas, we'll get rolling blackouts in the US, which might interrupt all those bloggers from pointing out my numerous flaws and social inadequacies on a regular basis.”
President Obama offered what he thinks is a more practical solution earlier this evening. “This is a great time for India to invest in green energy. They have a giant population, so if everyone just installed bikes and treadmills in their homes, they could probably produce enough energy to keep all of Asia lit up. Maybe they could put some of those cows to work on those treadmills, too. I'd suggest they subsidize solar panel companies, but I'd probably just get in trouble again for even bringing it up.”
India has been struggling with the world's biggest electrical blackout in history since yesterday. Indian officials attempted to call tech support to get assistance with the crash, but realized they had outsourced those customer service jobs to an even poorer country, and since no one is capable of understanding the accents of the people they're calling, India is “good and screwed,” as one official put it. - Return to Previous Page
