Can Shoes for Industry be the answer for the much needed econmic boom we need?

Think it over, then take off your shoes. Now you can see how increase spending opportunities means harder work for everybody.  More of it too.

So do your part today Joe and join the millions of your neighbors and turn in those shoes.  For Industry!

    Sorry, but I do not understand the logic here, some 20 years ago there was a fashion to slit creative holes in new jeans, it may have improved the sale of jeans. but I never really saw the logic there either.

    I looked up "shoes for industry" and all the leads I found, led to a group "Firesign" that looks a lot like a group of Monty Python actors. Are you sure that "Shoes for Industry" is a serious campaign? And not just a parody of one ? :-))

    "Diseased war veteran"? Are you implying all of the veterans returning are damaged some way?
